Dick Cheney still hasn't apologized to the man he shot quail hunting 10 years ago

On Feb. 11, 2006, then-Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot his companion, Harry Whittington, while quail hunting in Texas. A decade later, Whittington told the New York Daily News that despite the fact that he still has pellets lodged in his cheek and neck, he never did receive an apology from Cheney.

"[Cheney] never did need to apologize. It was an accident. He expressed his concern about me publicly, but he never had reason to apologize because we knew how seriously he was affected by it," Whittington said, showing exceptional understanding for someone who was literally shot in the face. Whittington, on the other hand, famously apologized to Cheney for the incident back in 2006.

The Daily News added that Whittington only recently fired a gun for the first time in a decade, when his son-in-law and friends took him quail hunting outside his hometown. He stressed that accidents are common while hunting quail, and that he holds "no hard feelings at all" against Cheney.
