Not according to the Old Testament. Ask Lot's wife.

Wasn't the anger Jesus demonstrated in the Temple righteous?

So the four gospels say. It said nowt about her being angry she just peeked when she was not supposed to look.

Things done in anger generally end as a colossal screw-up.

Yeah, after He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, God's first words were, "Oops! My bad."

That's the best I can do.

Hell, he says he hasn't even donated to Hillary.

But then he knows he doesn't have to. Wall Street billionaires are graciously doing that for him. They truly have his interests at heart.

Bernie knows he isn't going to win, he just doesn't want to see his movement peter out. I don't think he is wrong for that. The bad that it might do is to keep the anti Hilary momentum up longer and hand the white house to Trump though. I'm rather indifferent to Trump vs Hilary, but would hate to see the GOP with the Pres, House, Senate and a swing SCOTUS appointment all at the same time.

Yes run away from righteous anger when you see it...it could be a serial killer/rampager with an AR-15.

All anger imagines itself to be righteous.
