Wow - darned right he should win his suit - it's not like he was 'in
your face' about it nor trying to make a point. Nor did anyone think
he was joking about it (as Nash's teammates feel about Nash). Would
these awful people felt offended if Serodio had been an Egyptian or
other North African Arab group?

It is shocking how many people feel others deserve to suffer because
of their ignorance.
