War on Religion alert: Adorable little girl says lunch lady made her stop praying [VIDEO]

A little girl claimed that her lunch lady caught her praying in the cafeteria and forced her to stop–and the Youtube video of the adorable tyke telling her parents about it has become a viral sensation.
Constitutional law generally holds that schools can’t formally incorporate prayer into the curriculum ,and public officials can’t require prayer. Students should be allowed to pray on their own, however.
But according to the girl, when she tried to say a prayer before eating her lunch, a cafeteria supervisor stopped her.
The War on Christianity by tolerant "progressives" continues unabated. I would assume the girl could identify the employee whose employment should be terminated forthwith.
I am not as outraged about this as if maybe a real employee at the school did this. Since when do lunch ladies and janitors have the power to do more than cut govt' cheese and mop a floor at school?

In four generations we've gone from hearing something from the Bible read each morning by the teacher, to this? My grandmother taught second grade and read a selection to the class before the day started each morning, usually a Psalm. We'd recite the 23rd Psalm and the Pledge of Allegiance. Nobody was around to complain. Imagine that.
So the new cherished value of 'freedom from religion' is supposed to take us the rest of the way?
America is saying, "We can handle it now God, buzz off."
The problem is, I don't want to go where they're going.

To a little kid though Frank, she's as much a "real employee" as anyone else at the school.

There is something a little fishy about the story though.
If this was my daughter, I would have gone to school with her the next day and asked which teacher had told her to stop saying grace before her meal. Then I'd go to the principal with that information. The fact that this remained a general accusation with no specific person attached to it makes me wonder if we're getting the whole story.
To add more to the lunch room lady aspect, if it's a lunch room monitor who did this, that's a real teacher. The teachers get assigned this job. It's not done by volunteers, at least at my daughter's school.
