For a start, I'm not American.
I'm sorry, but I still don't understand.. You are saying that what ever someone says to me, I shouldn't have any feelings about it.. Does this go for good feelings, or do you only think we have control over our bad feelings??
I think I would be a very cold, awful person if I had no feelings about other people, or no feelings at how their actions affected me.
And I do think, long and hard, about how I feel from other peoples actions. But you cannot, in my opinion, feel nothing when someone is being nasty to you or what ever. Its human to feel stuff. Maybe a tortoise doesn't feel stuff when someone attacks them, but it is human nature to feel. They've even shown it in primates, that the way they are treated by the rest of their group affects they way they act and behave.
