The point is the post says "construed" to be. I think this is the fear of FOTF and other groups that these laws can be used to silence Christians...other wise why even mention "inside a church"? Who pickets gays inside a church? They preach or teach "homosexuality is a sin" among other things.

Well let's cut to the chase then. Would you oppose a law that outlawed speaking your mind that homosexuality is a sin outside of a church building?

I do agree certain kinds of discrimination of gays should not happen at all.

Discrimination though happens all the time legally. A job that only a woman can fill is discrimination. Men can't use a ladies restroom is discrimination.
