OUTLINE: 1. PRINCIPLE ARGUMENT: Major Premise- If moral anger exists, then moral facts exist. Minor Premise- If moral facts exist, then moral realist theses are sound. 2.

Minor Premiss- If anger is a reaction to injustice– a lack of concern for the moral worth of anther person– then anger is categorically and necessarily moral. 4.
