I agree that anger can be a destructive emotion, but it is also one of the six basic emotions. It's natural to have. It is a great survival tool to help us protect ourselves in the heat of the moment. I also agree that we need to tame it and control it, like a surfer does with the waves, but we must keep the waves there - we cannot pretend that they do not exist and hide them, or else they will come back stronger on the other side.
