CBS News says:
“Attorneys for the 14-year-old Muslim boy arrested after taking a homemade clock to his Dallas-area school say he was publicly mistreated and deserves $15 million. A law firm representing Ahmed Mohamed sent letters Monday demanding $10 million from the city of Irving and $5 million from the Irving Independent School District. The letters also threaten lawsuits and seek written apologies.
Ahmed took his clock to school in September, and an educator thought it could be a bomb. Ahmed was arrested but never charged. He was also suspended from school. The family accepted a foundation’s offer to pay for Ahmed’s education in Qatar and has since moved to the Persian Gulf country.”

The story has people saying things like:
“This is bull.
It is upsetting to see people get millions for slander and for minor injuries. And others who get nothing for major injuries, because some one else has a better attorney .. Better lies etc..
NO.. This kid deserves nothing..”
And:
“GOOD SOAK THEM FOR EVERYTHING,,,,,The administration of the school was foolish beyond pale. The teacher with whon this student wanted to impress was cowardly that he didn’t step up and defend this young man. And the teacher who’s MOUTH got this started HAS NO BUISSINES TEACHING. Hope he gets it all.”
Do you think the young man deserves money for what he was put through? Is $15 million not enough or too much?
