Housing Discrimination
Further information: Housing discrimination, Fair housing

The Civil Rights Act of 1968 defines housing discrimination as the “refusal to sell or rent a dwelling to any person because of his race, color, religion or national origin.” Title VIII of this Act is commonly referred to as the Fair Housing Act of 1968. Later, the disabled and families with children were added to this list.[4] There are several organizations that oversee and attempt to uphold this law, including the Department of Fair Employment and Housing.


We are not a pure libertarian society just like we are no a socialist society.

Maybe back then, when people still had "block parties" organized to ensure no one in the neighborhood sold their house to a minority, but these days you would have a hard time getting someone to admit they refused to sell a house on that basis, and thus have difficulty PROVING it. Rightly, IMHO; people should be free to sell or not sell their personal property to anyone they like. As disgusting as bigotry is, it should not be illegal.
