Yeah, from the story Corn Pop is a great guy. He let the arrogant 18 year old white kid who clown3d in him because he thought he could, get a pass since he apologized - even though he easily could have beaten the shit out if him.

Its honestly disgusting how Biden thinks its a story that makes himself look good. In his own old rascist mind, Biden is the "bigger man" because he "lowered himself" to apologize to Corn Pop. He presestes Corn Pop ("a bad dude, who ran with a gang of bad boys") as a savage who is bewildered at the concept of Joe apologizing to him. Biden does not present it as an act of mercy on Corn Pop's part, but like his "primitive" mind was shocked by the alleged magnanimity of a whites apology. Its pretty fucking gross.
