Is apologizing actually better?
 

Lately a lot of people have been caught saying or doing something that is in their character.

Then they apologize for doing or saying it.

I'd have more respect for them if they stood by their actions. The world is become one giant pussy convention. Say what you mean and mean what you say.

If they didn't get caught, they would not apologize. Has anyone ever said, "Oh yesterday, I was driving in my car, saw a black person and said to myself, look at the stupid hahahahahaha", and then apologize for saying that?

They only apologize because they got caught.

Apologies are for mistakes. Not intentional acts.
