THE WORD FREIGHTENED HAD NEITHER BEEN AN INSULT DIRECTED AGAINST AN INDIVIDUAL, OR CERTAIN GROUPS, NOR IT HAD BEEN DELIBERATE ACT INTENDED TO HARM ANY PERSON IN ANY WAY.


I am deeply sorry to have innocently and mistakenly used the word freightened in one of my daily articles published on the internet and several Newspapers said to have stirred societies and communities in the USA, initiated violence with possible several claims of many lives, due to the misinterpretation of the word freightened.
It had neither been an insult directed against an individual, or certain groups, nor it had been deliberate act intended to harm any person in any way.
I had simply and mistakenly used the word freightened to describe the condition of a terrified individual, or groups of people in our world, rather than that regarded as an insult deliberately directed against the black race in the USA and elsewhere of which I happened to be one.
