I think the most recent wave of these bills is motivated out of spite and anger over the fact that overt bigotry isn't nearly as socially acceptable as it used to be (especially bigotry toward gays, which has become more and more uncool within the past decade or so).
This is as much motivated by backlash against the very idea of changing social attitudes as it is motivated by actual animus against minority groups.
