Letter: Why apologize to the shooter?

Is anyone out there as confused as I am about Texas attorney Harry Whittington's apology to the guy who shot him? Is it possible that one of the shotgun pellets could have penetrated the area of his brain that produces logical reasoning?

And how about the shooter, Vice President Dick Cheney? Does the fact that he owns a custom-made $23,000 Italian shotgun exempt him from accepting an apology? Does the shooter plan to sue for mental anguish, too?
