That would be sorry for what you did to your brother, but not sorry for doing the right thing. These are two different things.If the situation would be for example this: my brother committed a crime and I know it and I know he would deserve punishment. I could testify against him, which would be right, but I would also be sorry.
1) What you did to your brother
2) Doing the right thing
You can't combine the two and pretend they're the same. In any case, as I pointed out in post 37, there are other translations of Genesis 6:5-6 where it doesn't say god is "sorry," but says he "repented" and "regretted."

And it repented Jehovah that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

The Lord regretted that He had made mankind on the earth, and He was [deeply] grieved in His heart.

God repented, regretted, and was sorry for what he did = he made mistakes, which is why in post 15 I said,
" . . . according to the Bible God himself has made mistakes, so right there is evidence his judgment isn't always right."
