17. oh, and btw

If I applied to rent an apartment from someone who made it a condition of the lease that I keep a firearm in the apartment, and I refused to agree to do so, that landlord could perfectly legally "discriminate against" me and refuse to rent the apartment to me, too.

I mean, unless maybe I were a Quaker and it was against my religious beliefs to have a firearm, which would make the rule discrimination on the ground of religion ... or maybe if I were a parent and successfully argued that requiring me to keep a firearm, which I believed would endanger my children, amounted to discrimination on the ground of "family status" against people who have children, which is illegal discrimination ...
