#1 In today's world, an apology ought to be enough unless you are Paula Dean (sarc).

#2 Sarc on mark !

Paula Deen, Tell Em All To Go To Hell is the current column, now on WND. An excerpt:
Blaming Old-South cultureas the prototypical knaves of conservatism are doing is unlikely to help exculpate Paula Deen in the minds of the morons who judge her for her words, rather than for her deeds. The bad old South macro-narrative is as ineffective in mitigation as is pointing out that Deen misspoke because of a near-death experience. A black man [once] burst into the bank that I was working at and put a gun to my head, recounted Deen. I didnt feel real favorable towards him.

It is for the same reason that the young mother, seen here in a video gone viral being kicked and punched repetitively and mercilessly by a burly black man, should watch her words in the future. The home of the mom was invaded by the man, who delighted in brutalizing her in front of her toddler.

Instead of sticks and stones that break bones, there can be no doubt that the mother from Millburn, N.J., would have settled during that terrifying attack for the kind of cuss words that will never hurt mecracker, to quote Trayvon Martin, RIP.

But those who watched the persecution of the mom from Millburn and the tycoon from Georgia took away a different lesson than the one implied by that wise old adage.

Mind your mouth, mom! The hate crime you endured will not mitigate or explain any future slip-of-the-tongue. You may stereotype an elderly, highly successful white woman, based on her tribes past wrongdoing; but you dare not attach statistical significance to the misdeeds of a black man, because of his groups considerable contribution to crime.
