Former Racist...Apologies......

Former racist now 72, struggling with many disease, including diabetes has had a change of heart. Elwin Hope Wilson has spent half of life beating up Black people. He goes on to say that he is seeking forgiveness for all that he has done to Blacks. Here's an insert from Associated Press:

"The former Ku Klux Klan supporter says he wants to atone for the cross burnings on Hollis Lake Road. He wants to apologize for hanging a black doll in a noose at the end of his drive, for flinging cantaloupes at black men walking down Main Street, for hurling a jack handle at the black kid jiggling the soda machine in his father's service station, for brutally beating a 21-year-old seminary student at the bus station in 1961."

How do we feel about a situation like this? Do we accept his apologies and forgive him? Let me know what you think!
