derives from their status as a politically vulnerable minority that has
suffered a history of discrimination, which continues to this day

This is because they stick their gayness in our faces and demand special treatment.
They are only special because they're sick depraved individuals who seek out
sexual relief in perverted ways. They deserve to be Spat on by all who want a civil society.

If you’d said ‘prequalified WHITE buyers’ you’d have been in a world of hurt.

No, they'd just have refused to do business with me, which is their right. I didn't have to say "white."

Now lets assume for the sake of argument that's what I meant, and the realtor (who knew what I meant) brought me an "unqualified" buyer. I'd terminate the real estate contract with that realtor for breach of contract.

If they were dumb enough to sue for my terminating the contract. they'd have to defend their acceptance of the contract in court in the first place.

No real estate agent wants to go on record as having to defend themselves from discriminating against proposed buyers, that'd put them out of business.

As for me, I'd list it with another agent with the same terms. Which again, they're free to refuse to do.

You just have to know how to play the game, and you'd be naive to think real estate agents don't do it all the time.

The real estate agent who sold me this house I'm in now (a dear friend of the family) also showed me plenty of others that I initially liked. Anytime I said I liked a house, she'd take me for a drive around the surrounding area and start asking me questions about what I was seeing. In essence, she was showing me how to "qualify" a neighborhood before In purchased a house in it.

As I said happens all the time.

This is so hypocritical, when RC priests and their live-in lovers jointly own condos all over the Miami Diocese and in Key West. In Rome, too.

Ridiculous!

If a qualified black buyer had showed up with the proper documentation/money you’d have had to either sell to them or take the property off the market.

As I said under the hypothetical scenario I posted, I'd terminate the contract with the realtor for breach of contract and re-list.

No realtor in their right mind would attempt to sue because they'd have to defend the fact that they were also breaking the law.

The realtor wouldn’t sue. The prospective buyers might though.

visit ‘Fair Housing Act’ to see what happens...

Good luck basing a lawsuit on a generic "offer refused."

By the way, did you know that three years ago the Obama Administration made a move to try and implement a "neighborhood diversity review" for all homes purchased and funded through Fannie and Freddie?

It's true. They wanted to make it so any prospective buyer of any house was "reviewed and approved" before approving a loan. If they didn't like you or I selling a home to another white person, they'd refuse to loan the money. But if a black buyer came along, the'd pass the "diversity review" and the sale of your or my home would then be "approved."

Now since Fannie and Freddie hold more mortgages than anyone else in the country, how would you like them apples?

Imagine, FORCING "diversity" in real estate. Absolutely ridiculous.

Is my home MY home or the Governments? It's mine - free and clear - paid cash. If they want "divesity" in my neighborhood the Government can buy me out full price first. Make the bastards expose their horseshit agenda of trying to force people who don't want to live in "racially diverse" areas and then see what happens.

My property, I'll do with it as I wish.

Of course I know about the neighborhood diversity review.

You don’t really own your property. You just rent it for the property tax amount.
