If people feel offended, they can protest or they can leave. Or they can decide to boycott it. Last I heard, its a free country. The fact the ACLU is looking for a plaintiff indicates few people felt it bothered them. Lots of people find things offensive but if we had to make a list of them, every one would be tied up in the courtrooms through doomsday.

People can leave or boycott their own (or their children's) graduation ceremony because some nut decides to turn her speech into a church service?

Get a grip. A simple prayer or words about God would be fine. Asking for converts right then and there is stupid. The kind of stupid that gets everyone punished. The next kid who just wants to thnk God won't be allowed cause this idiot pulled this stunt.
