Since the "Kramer" thread is closed I though this would fit just as well here.

The following are a couple of excerpts from the article. Found here:

Men Seek Apology From Ex-'Seinfeld'

"Two men who say they were insulted by actor-comedian Michael Richards during his racist rant at a comedy club want a personal apology and maybe some money, one of the men and their lawyer said Friday".

"Allred, speaking by phone from Colorado, said Richards should meet McBride and Doss in front of a retired judge to "acknowledge his behavior and to apologize to them" and allow the judge to decide on monetary compensation".

"Our clients were vulnerable," Allred said. "He went after them. He singled them out and he taunted them, and he did it in a closed room where they were captive."

Captive!?! They couldnt get up and leave when he started insulting them? Did he have them tied to their seats with a gun to their head?

I'm not making any exscuses for Richards here, but come on. Monetary compensation for being a jerk. An apology is appropriate, but not cash.
