Yay, Islamophobia. Forced prayer should be stamped out from public schools. Period. Let's just agree on that without going to extremes like "we'll all be living under Shari'a law!!!!111"
EDIT: In other words, neither myself nor the courts give a flying f* what is popular, the law against religious establishment exists for a reason, and even if every teacher and every student except that ONE GUY supported it, that ONE GUY has a legal right that should be easily defended in court. If it isn't then we should consider that a failure of America and strive to overturn it and commit to doing better in the future.

Not Islamophobia, just a wary eye on those who would chip away at the Christian and Jewish foundations of the nation. Others are welcome, but not to destroy the foundations.
