From the Independent:
The family of Ahmed Mohamed, the Texan schoolboy who was arrested after taking a homemade clock to school, has demanded $15m in compensation and written apologies from the local mayor and police chief.
In letters sent on Monday, the lawyers said if the City of Irving and Irving School District did not agree to the apologies and compensation, they would file a civil action.
"Ahmed never threatened anyone, never caused harm to anyone, and never intended to. The only one who was hurt that day was Ahmed, and the damages he suffered were not because of oversight or incompetence," said the letter to the city authorities.

You remember that time there was a bomb threat at a school? We had at least one yearly, and had only maybe 400 kids at the high school. I could count the number of not-white kids there on one hand.
A Muslim kid would have provided us with countless amounts of fun, and all of what I'm saying is from a pre-police-state world. I was sleeping in Spanish class in my senior year when that went down.
Don't blame me, I voted for moose wang!
