it's funny how the world works
> a Harvard graduate student made a landmark discovery about the nature of human anger.
the article doesn't credit the inuits with the discovery.
> By contrast, Briggs seemed like a wild child, even though she was trying very hard to control her anger. "My ways were so much cruder, less considerate and more impulsive," she told the CBC. "[I was] often impulsive in an antisocial sort of way. I would sulk or I would snap or I would do something that they never did."
but instead credits Briggs, who is the one exhibiting primitive behavior and being exposed to the higher path
This comment doesn't seem to be made in good faith and seems to be looking to take offense. It's reasonably clear here that "discovery" is relative to the society Briggs is from. The people who cared for Briggs made a discovery (whether on their own or through a different nation themselves), and Briggs' people ("westerners" to use a simple descriptor) made the discovery through Brigg's experiences.
Discovered is not reasonably understood as "discovered for the first time by a human". For all we know the Inuit tribe themselves only discovered their techniques from another nation.
Does not seam to work very well either:

Do you have any evidence that those murders occur _within_ their communities by people raised like this?

No, do you have any evidence that they are NOT raised like this?

You have to know there is a huge difference between showing and managing your initial anger response, and plotting a murder.
>managing your initial anger response
And whats with long term anger response?
