Employer Rejects Immigrant Man With Racist Email, Regrets It After Daughter Fires Back

I would definitely fire the HR manager who send this message to the job applicant.  It's ridiculous for a few reasons:
1) It represents the employer in unprofessional way
2) It exposes the employer to a discrimination law suit
3) It's disrespectful to immigrants and non native english speakers

Apparently, this guy who speaks very little language applied for a job, and HR manager send him back an inappropriate response. Daughter posted online and multiple lawayers offered to take a lawsuit case probono. The guy and daughter declined and employer issued an apology, afraid of being suit.

Here is the debate: Does this family have a case to win monetary damages, and if so was it a mistake not to proceed with the lawsuit?  I will take position of pro.  They have clear documentation of discrimination and have a good chance of winning.  Since the offer was pro bono, why not proceed? It was a mistake not to.
