Yep: get over it :)
Personally whilst in all honesty I couldn't give two hoots, nor feel
sorry about anything in particular - if it brings some kind of
comfort/happiness to some of them, then great, let them have their
'apology' I say. I'm just not that mean spirited, I guess.
The major bonus IMO is that this whole thing really pisses off some of
the ugliest people in our country - this in itself makes it worth doing :)
Finally, why bring this up here... as if there isn't enough discussion
about it as it is.
