Right now my ADU is in the framing phase and will be putting the trusses for the roof on.

While tattoos might not be a protected class, freedom of speech (expression) is protected, and denying solely on that might get you in hot water.  

I give her the speech to tell her about the unit but then I get a call from work - my 9-5.  

They lean towards a hybrid system using their panels for exterior walls, and perhaps flooring, but using a steel framing for the roof trusses. 

We had to replace more than half of the roof, including over 40 trusses and jacks.

Free speech is a constitutional right, which suggests the freedom to ignore someone else's free speech is also a constitutional right.

As for people having fear of speaking, that's just crazy (oh saying that I could be sued for hate speech against people that might possibly read this and have mental illness- and yes I know mental illness is a very serious disease and have great compassion for those that have it) Please people, don't give into that type of fear.

Doesn't matter whether the intent is complimentary or derogatory or neutral, all landlords would do well to never specify or call out applicant race or ethnicity in speech or in writing.

My first instinct is that if I can't hold a conversation because their speech is so bad (non-language barrier) I should automatically disqualify them based on a phone conversation.
