"That suit is about punitive damages," said attorney Willie Gary, who is representing the Willborns. "It's not about the money. It's about punitive. We know in America that the only thing most corporations and people that conspire like this understand is when they get hit in the pockets."

Gary said in the age in which we live there is no room for this kind of bigotry.

"This is the year 2010, and to go through what they've had to go through, to suffer the mental anguish they've had to deal with because they were discriminated against in a way that nobody should have to deal with in this day and age. They were discriminated against in the worst way."
