You can only be angry at someone if you want or expect something from them.
I remember that passage (paraphrased) in the Carlos Castenada book where Carlos is telling his teacher he is mad at this or that person and his teacher Don Juan asks him, "If a mountain lion showed up and stole our fish would you be mad at him?" Carlos says no. Don Juan asks him why not? Carlos says, "Well because the mountain lion is just acting according to his nature." Don Juan says, "So are those people you are mad at."
