Seems fair...
 
A South Florida man is threatening to sue Lake County if officials pray
during a commission meeting but do not allow him to give a satanic
invocation.

Chaz Stevens, a self-described atheist, tells local media that his
request this week is part of his "Satan or Silence Project." His goal is
to persuade elected officials to either drop prayers before meetings or
allow him to lead a satanic prayer.

Commission Chairman Jimmy Conner says he will not allow the request.

In the past, Stevens has helped sway several cities to have a moment of
silence before meetings instead of a prayer. He says he consider filing
a lawsuit if Lake County denies his request.

Conner says he'll rally churches to raise money for a defense, should he
need to. He has no plans to forgo the invocation.

I would be OK if they just said "do that in the hall before you come
in. We are working here".
