"The owner of the Hampton Inn responded to ABC7 saying, "That policy has been rescinded more than a week ago prior to the couple filing a complaint. The couple is basically using this as a way to extort money from us. ""
Yeah, but you had the policy in place when the altercation occurred. Maybe if you didn't have the policy in the first place you wouldn't have had to rescind it and there would be no complaint.
And "extort money"? Um, "The couple said the owner of the Hampton Inn eventually called them back, offering them $1,000 and a steak dinner if they stay away from the media. But the Davises say this isn't about the money, it's about standing up for the people of Kankakee. "
Sounds like the owner needs a course in Reading Comprehension 101.
