There is definitely something there - based on the idea that what a society tolerates, it gets more of. And there is definitely a deterrent principle that comes into play to some degree.
I just think, in general, I have never seen a high level of anger lead to good and reasonable behavior. When I see blackout rage in people, I never see them acting in virtuous ways.
I got mad at a lawnmower once that I pulled on about 200 times and wouldn't start. With each unsuccessful pull, my anger grew. Honey Buns was working in the back yard when I came running through the yard toward the large hill in front of the house, with the mower raised over my head, screaming like a jihadist, and I threw the mower down the hill. Crap was breaking and flying off the mower as it tumbled 50 feet down the hill. Honey Buns told me I looked like a raving lunatic and said, "That really helps!" I walked away and she asked where I was going. I told her to buy a new mower! But, not my proudest moment.
