I'm curious about screening for applicants who are registered sexual offenders.

In Redding, CA the drug addicts shooting up heroin in the parks was so bad rather than arrest them, they removed the playground equipment, and the public libraries in many towns are overrun with sexual predators using the computers.

Aside from engaging in assault, sexual assualt, or openingly engaging in some illegal activities.

@Steven Lowe and sure enough, the insults came flying - name calling, attacking my character, coming after me for my race, gender and sexuality, wishing harm to my family and myself - you name it, I think I've heard it in the last few days. 

I didn't have sexual relations with this woman, Miss Lewinsky...

Here's an example: If you invest in working class small multifamily assets (let's say C+), investing in a market with high rental demand for this segment of properties and very landlord friendly laws will allow you to be successful, even if your property manager isn't a rockstar at marketing units, or selecting perfect tenants, because the product will (to a limited degree) sell itself, and the easy eviction process will make tenant misbehaviors more correctible. 

The district attorney, Alvin Bragg, told prosecutors in his office in a memo that they should ask judges for jail or prison time only for the most serious offenses — including murder, sexual assault and economic crimes involving vast sums of money.And this ladies and gentlemen is called turning the asylum over to the inmates.

However when one states that folks with a record of a violent or sexual nature its pretty easy to say that is protecting people. 

They are not a protected class.Here are your protected classes per federal law:The FHA, to date, includes seven protected classes: race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, and familial status.http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/the-fair-ho...Colorado's list of protected classes is:Protected classes in housing include: Race, Color, Religion, Creed, National Origin/Ancestry, Sex, Disability/Handicap, Sexual Orientation (including Transgender Status), Marital Status, and Familial Status (children under the age of 18 in the household).https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/dora/civil-rights... 

Or if your intent was to not rent to a gay couple, and your state doesn't allow discrimination against sexual preference.You probably couldn't get away with it in CA.
