But it is easier to ask for forgiveness, as long as you’re willing to face the consequences. I would rather say, “I’m sorry I shot your husband” than say, “Pardon me ma’am, would you mind terribly if I shot your husband?” (Either way I’m going to prison, but that does not enter into the original premise.)
whoever came up with that expression had absolutely no intention of asking forgiveness and very little if any regard for anyone but themselves – JMHO – and yes I loathe that expression.

that appeared to be harvey weinstein’s approach, except he didn’t ask for forgiveness, either…
