Being driven, buffeted, pushed on by pain, fear or anger is little better than being hateful scum from a pragmatic point of view.

Great input. I'm most concerned about people spreading this stuff around - tweeting/retweeting hysterics or paranoia.
I think that's bad.
Good point. Bad point. Adequate point.
Point worth making, at any rate.
I think I see what you mean. I agree.
