Discrimination, Really? Confusion More Likely.

I was about to rant about Indiana and what VA is about to do, supposedly do, I mean. Then I really got to reading the RFRA, and I agree with (mostly) with this article here after reading the wiki on AZ here and noting at the bottom of the wiki there is a list of states with 'similar' legislation but two states out right say that the legislation is working on discriminating against lgtb. The rest is to protect the religious populations of their states. I get that in reality protecting religious beliefs makes it possible to protect discrimination because of said beliefs, however is it really being put into play to target these groups of people by those groups of people? Is putting a law or groups of laws up to protect one group really a bad thing?  No, I kinda like my laws protecting me and making me equal.  

NOW having said that, I believe that churches should be taxed, and that church and state should be separated, like completely separated. Instead of political people running their mouths saying this is a Christian country and that laws should be based on what every holy story book they happen to be holding. Yet I truly believe that they have the right to hold that story book, to believe in that story book and to follow that story book as long as they do it with out infringing upon my rights to live a normal happy life over here.  You know one where I can have birth control and protect myself from diseases through vaccines and condoms. And wear blended materials, and not be spayed and pick my own clothes, pick my spouse, and eat what ever I want when ever I want, and bathe, and drive, and well you get the point.

Yet this legislation, which to me, reads, like it's going to protect you for holding your book, and me for not, is being targeted on a group of people who are TAX PAYERS and VOTERS who follow all the other laws and rules and who live normal lives, some even go to church to follow the book too. Doesn't this sound like segregation all over again?  I thought the slaves were freed and there was no more 'lines, doors and water fountains of color' anymore.  Yet here we go, with spouting that business will be allowed to say no to certain groups of peoples just because "reasons" and the law backs them up?

No.  This is ass, and it seems forced. The LGTB community is no different that any other group of people, they just happen to identify with each other and they deserve the same rights like every other group of people. Like you know,  church goers, hipsters and the NCAA. They are all people. Color, creed. love life does not matter, what matters is they live without infringing upon other peoples rights, without breaking the most basic laws (no stealing, no killing, wait that's infringing upon other's rights), They are people and to repeat myself, they deserve the same rights.  And thus this is all ass.

What I want to know is why is this all coming to a head so suddenly.  What are our eyes being averted to, if anything?  Are we as a nation, as a people so bored that we are creating drama?  Wait I can actually see that, a nation of drama queens. UGH. Or have we as a nation become so numb to stupid and hate that we have to ratchet up a notch and dig at other little cuts to feel again like some emo kid in the corner?

EDIT

This is coming from scrolling FB really quickly:

Okay so I am really confused, here is the law, and It sounds like to me, it's protecting the religious peoples from the government like I said but does that mean that the religious peoples can go and discriminate against everyone now because they are protected?  Really? Is this what people are afraid of? Because if that is exactly what happens then, we as a nation needs to step back and start really looking at our selves, then look at the rest of the world and realize that we are being ass.
