Quote:This is like saying the house rake impinges on my gambling rights. If you don't like the way the game is played, don't play.


The lone reason you have given for your personal justification to keep 36,000 people in second class citizen status is that they would have the same protection under the Fair Housing Act as the handicapped, blacks, Muslims, etc. If you truly only care about a FICO score what does it matter? The entire way you have presented this argument is that your rights are taken away by accommodating minorities and demographics which have been historically discriminated against. You would prefer the right to discriminate as you see that as your right. The laws that are decades old say you cannot.


So essentially you wish to keep your thumb on the last minority group in the city without protection because you feel they don't deserve the same rights as others and/or are not discriminated against. Both are false. You are whining about your rights without accepting the terms all landlords must accept when they enter that social contract. Tenants have rights too. Deal with it.

There you go again. Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying and I don't care the REASON for the discrimination. I'm not racist, a bigot, or anything else you try to paint me to be simply because I don't think I have the right to decide for someone else what they must or must not do with their own property. I told you my standard and still you try to make it about something that it isn't. I don't care about historically discriminated against groups. I don't care about historically powerful groups. And I don't care for one reason, It's not my business to care about their property. And stop with the social contract bull [BLEEP], the law changes all the time. It's not untouchable and just because it's a law doesn't make it moral, ethical, or plain old right.
