You cannot take yelling or screaming at someone back, so when you do that, expect some kind of consequence in return. When you get angry, you could have health problems or get into trouble. Being angry will cause you more harm than good. Remember your actions will always have some kind to consequences. If you allow yourself to do illegal things, you will be arrested. If you get upset at every little thing in the world, you could have health problems.
Anger could cause you health problems. I was at my grandparents one day and my grandpa came home from work. He opened the door and was screaming and yelling about his job. He was running around the house and would not stop. All of a sudden we didn't hear him anymore. My grandma went into be back room, and I heard her scream "call an ambulance grandpa is on the floor." I ran to the phone and called the ambulance and then went back to see my grandpa lying face down on the bedroom floor. He had gotten so angry that he had a heart attack.

We explained what had happened and my friend was arrested and hauled off to jail and rightfully so. Of course he did not think so. He ended up getting a 500 dollar fine and 20 hours of community service for road rage and destruction of private property. I still to this day don't believe he learned anything because he is the same way.
This is another example of not losing your temper. When I was 21 years old, I went out to the bar with my friends. I am not going to lie I was a very angry person when I was younger. I was playing pool and this guy behind me kept bumping into me. I let it go until the third time, and then I told him if it happened again we are going to have a problem. Well, he did it again and I broke my pool stick over his head. Needless to say I started a bar fight between my friends and his friends. When the cops came I was honest and told them exactly what happened. I knew I was going to jail and I did. I spent three days in jail. Then, I had to
