It has a link to the SCOTUS opinion which starts out with a syllabus of that opinion. It's an interesting opinion in a 5-4 decision.

Thanks for the link. It is interesting. I wonder if some folks will be nonchalant once demographics change and non-Christian prayers become more prevalent. I think Kagan gets it right.

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
