If someone uses a weapon to injure us, the actual thing that hurts us is the weapon. What hurts us indirectly is the person’s anger. So if we must be angry, we should be angry with the weapon or with the anger that is the reason for the weapon’s being used. Take away the person’s weapon and anger, and there is no one left to be angry with.
