it would be appropriate for many states to revisit their own public accommodation laws as gays are often not listed as a protected class under those statutes....

Indiana's current public accommodation law doesn't protect gays from discrimination through denial of services or goods.

I was thinking they were looking to enact the RFRA to keep anyone from litigating these cases under the equal protections clauses as there was not and is not any way to litigate under current public accommodation laws in Indiana.

Appropriate to keep the pressure on.
