How muslims treat other when they are in power...

Saudi Arabia - Conversion by a Muslim to another religion is punishable by death. Bibles are illegal. Churches are illegal.

Yemen - Bans proselytizing by non-Muslims and forbids conversions. The Government does not allow the building of new non-Muslim places of worship.

Kuwait - Registration and licensing of religious groups. Members of religions not sanctioned in the Koran may not build places of worship. Prohibits organized religious education for religions other than Islam.

Egypt - Islam is the official state religion and primary source of legislation. Accordingly, religious practices that conflict with Islamic law are prohibited. Muslims may face legal problems if they convert to another faith. Requires non-Muslims to obtain what is now a presidential decree to build a place of worship.

Algeria - The law prohibits public assembly for purposes of practicing a faith other than Islam. Non-Islamic proselytizing is illegal, and the Government restricts the importation of non-Islamic literature for distribution.

Jordan - Has the death penalty for any Muslim selling land to a Jew.

Sudan - Conversion by a Muslim to another religion is punishable by death.

Pakistan - Conversion by a Muslim to another religion is punishable by death. Bans proselytizing by non-Muslims. Christians regularly put in prison for charges of blasphemy.

Qatar - Islamic instruction is compulsory in public schools. The government regulates the publication, importation, and distribution of non-Islamic religious literature. The government continues to prohibit proselytizing of Muslims by non-Muslims.

Malaysia - Under Malaysian law, any convert to Christianity must apply to a shariah (Muslim law) court to legally renounce Islam. Many Christians prefer to remain silent converts rather than take their battle to the shariah courts, where apostasy or conversion out of Islam is punishable by whipping, fines, imprisonment and--in the most extreme application--death.

Worked recently.

Actually, I think a student should offer a prayer during their remarks that goes something along the line of "Dear God, please save us from the Muslims among us who hate us so much that they wish to remove our religious freedom from us."

the ACLU should be ignored wherever they are and try to act.
Any court orders that are inspired by ACLU actions should also be ignored. Let them try and arrest some people based
on ACLU inspired judgments , see what happens .
Just ignore the entire process that is propagated by the ACLU.

Harder to pull off.

All christians, regardless of denomination, know the Lord's Prayer ("tresspasses" vs. "sins", being the only difference).

"The students should simply recite the Lord's prayar when the principal starts talking."

AGREED. Perhaps the principal could even have a little pause after clearing his or her throat a couple times... then some spontaneous prayer from the crowd... could be fit right in.
