I am really confused by the negative reactions because it seems like Ahmed's family is following the American Way by suing for $15 million.

But seriously, isn't this how it always has been with incidents like this? If they want to sue they don't want to sue for $2 million because the school will probably tryo to settle for ~$500K. If you set it at $15 million, it anchors the price point higher and they may get $3 million to make it go away.
