Public Disgrace and Private Apologies

There are some people who have a penchant for spewing hate and inciting passions. The least provocation set them off on the road of insults and insinuations. On that road, they shout on top of their lungs to whoever will hear them. They care not who listens or not. They will insult, speak half truths, cast insinuations, exaggerate and flat out lie to damage others hard earned reputation. Yet, they come back with their tails in between their legs to apologize privately. Such people are a menace to our society and one must be very wary when dealing with them. Once you identify such people, you have to do all you can to stay as far away from them as you possibly can. And if yoked with them such that they cannot be avoided, then keep matters as private as you can. When you find them on the road of insults and insinuations don’t try to engage them. How can you tell the wise from the fool when both are on the same road. In time people will come to realize the fool they are and pay them no attention.And when they apologize in private, treat it with all the contempt it deserves.
