Getting angry is just an emotion, so long as you handle yourself properly it doesn't really matter at all what you feel. The point I and others are trying to get across here is that the author of the story is voicing an unrealistic expectation; one that involved everyone playing by the same rules. My point is that outward 'aggression' is a normal part of dealing with a crowd, you can't villain-ize it without villain-izing the behaviour that makes it necessary. "If everyone were perfectly courteous, everyone would be standing perfectly still so as to not accidentally infringe on someone else's perceived personal space." By this I mean a world where everybody acts to minimize discomfort of others on the streets is a fantasy.
