Yes, there are those who would replace the separation clause of the US Constitution with "Congress shall make not law preferring a sect of religion of anther." Wording that was specifically rejected because it denied the rights of the non-religious.
News articles of people being evicted after the revelation of their atheism, others being fired because of their atheism. Kids bullied in school sometimes by teachers because of their atheism.

Threats over billboards.
Atheist bullied out of school.
