It's unconstitutional. Even though they were told to keep their mouths shut during that period of time, they ignorantly went on with the prayer. In my opinion, it was like a "fuck you non-believers".
I'm fine with voluntary praying, but mandatory praying is just a no.

If I were him, I'd want nothing to do with them."
