I think it would be better for her if she addressed why she thinks it's an insult to call someone a faggot, and work on that within herself.
Yip... pity it took Jaguar to make her think about herself.
Oooh... good point. When I visited your country, I met a trio of rugby playing brothers. We were at a BBQ (grilled boerwors are delicious) and there was a pool... rugby players jumping in and out of water all afternoon... it was all I could do not to stare.
I know you. You did stare. Lol.
True, it will... but if she apologizes and then works to show she's learned by publicly sponsoring some queer event, or some such, it will get pushed down.
Then again, people have forgiven Tiger Woods pretty quickly.

You have an odd definition of homophobe (or at least that's what your last paragraph implies).

Ah, okay. Her apology does seem rather clumsy, agreed there.

I don't think you should read too much in the exact wording of her apology.

You should watch that Southpark episode where they change the meaning of the word faggot.

Suspect you need to consider the way the word is used in other countries.

I'm not assuming there's an underlying bad nature, I am saying she should look to see if it's there.

I don't think I'm looking at the negative side of things, merely saying that she needs to look.
