I don't get angry when people have different opinions. I do, however feel annoyed when someone thinks that their opinion is more valid than anyone else's. To be perfectly honest, I don't take much stock in opinions... so few people vote or do anything productive, all they do is Their Job, or School, or the bare minimum of other selfish things for themselves while they pretty much ignore the plight of others around them.
Thankfully, I can vent without having to be cruel to other people. I usually try to listen and feign interest in their thoughts and stories of themselves. I find it particularly amusing to see if I can find where they contradict themselves, thus proving they are just spouting a lot of nonsense they never really took the time to think through.
Of course, I keep these observations to myself. I'd hate for Peoples opinions to be negative about me. That would certainly make me angry.

No, I love it when people have a different opinion. The only time I ever hate it or get angry is if they hate me having an opinion or try and shove their beliefs down my throat.
I love having a debate, you may come across points you did not now, and it can even strengthen your argument.
If you do not like people having an opinion, your opinion must be weak or you must be afraid of it changing. People who say im always right, are very big headed. No one is always right.
I think it makes people more open minded and gives every opinion a better argument as to why you think that.

No not angry at all. I like to hear different opinions as it gives me a chance to see something in a way I may have never thought to before. Sometimes, people are so involved in the way they feel about something, that they can't see there are other options. It's never a right or wrong belief-just a belief we can either agree or disagree on.
The main issue at hand is respect. If shown respect for my feelings and ideas, I give it as well.

It all depends on type of opinions that some may have.
I believe that everyone is entitled to have different opinions.
Even with such freedom of having of opinions, there are consequences that people should aware of. Some opinions are good to be different, but the way you say or way that the person who are receptive it can have different effects.
Let me be more specific for you.
1. Provocative Opinion
2. Hostile Opinion.
3. Neutral Opinion.
4. Passive Opinion.
5. Offensive Opinion.
6. Defensive Opinion.
There are more, but let me just explain some of them. That should give you some ideas.
1. Provocative Opinions,
Such opinion is where person makes opinion or comments different from yours, but solely purpose of making you angry/upset/stress/etc. resulting some type of retaliating reacting opinion that resulted in possible physical/mental aggression. These types of opinion is solely by someone who's personlity is already like that, calculated, or solely purpose of humor(Type of a person who gets pleasure from provoking other people).
2. Hostile Opinion,
It's same as provocative opinion with an exception. A goal of having some type of hostility with that particular person or group of people that share such opinion. These typically resulted in violence, death, and massive damage.
3. Neutral Opinion,
It's the way you say your opinion to other person without stimulating anything positive or negative from the person. Although these opinions are extremely different from other person, it does not result in any change of attitude of others.
Okay that should be enough for some explanation.
As for me, I usually do not get angry from opinion. Only time I get angry is when someone's making provocative/hostile opinion intentionally. I guess you can call it, "lying opinions" Type of opinions where it's not really that person's true opinions, but they choose to express it just to be different from your opinions or merely to trick youl. These type of people makes me angry because usually these types of opinion has hidden agenda.

No, there is no reason to get angy, everyone is different, the only time I get angry about something like that is when someone asks for my opinion and doesn't listen

An opinion is the right to feel whatever you want and is not a fact. So I would not be angry.

Not really. But it irritates me when people completely ignore other arguments and don't even consider anyone else's point of view sometimes, but then I forget about it because in the end it doesn't really matter.
I try to consider all sides carefully rather than just making a decision, and will listen patiently to other peoples sides. It's not so much it angers me, but I wish people would be more considerate of each other, or not argue at all if they can't be mature.

Yes. Because I'm not one of today's wishy washy people who say that everyone has a right to their opinion & everyone should live as they want to. I believe some things are right. I believe some things are wrong. Murder (in all it's forms i.e. killing, suicide, lethal injection, capital punishment, euthanasia, abortion), I believe is wrong. No room for opinions there. Who's the best band? Room for opinion.

No, why get angry? They are probably wrong but they have the right to their own opinion.
