[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shouldn't Davidson apologize to directly to Lindo and Jordan purely for optics reasons, and say something about how he's apologizing for impact, but not intent? Even if you personally don't think he should?

People keep defending him by saying then he'd have to apologize for every single little thing he does and for his existence, but like...this is such a high-profile incident and it's clear the lack of apology is inflaming tensions. Maybe just make an exception this once?[/quote]

He may well have and I think any conversations there should stay private. There is absolutely no apology he could make that would be accepted by the masses who believe he had intent, underlying racist beliefs, control, etc. All an apology would do is bring more attention to this in a bad way and further hate. I don't think an apology would do anything to decrease tension as it just won't say what people think he needs to say. Any words would he said would be ripped to shreds and scorned as disengenuous. His team isn't going to force him to lie and say untruths about intent, beliefs, and control to satisfy the angry mob. Jamie Foxx wants this to be seen as a hate crime. There is nothing that can be said publicly once people have already decided for themselves that he should burn at the stake.  [/quote]
