Housing applications run a credit history along with a background check, how long do you think they should be able to go back?

If a person has no recent criminal activity and there are no evictions on record with notable recent rental history to back them up, should they still be denied housing?

Do you think this is form or discrimination, profiling, or stereotyping when it comes to denying another human being housing if they are adequately able to pay for that housing?

When a person commits a crime and is found guilty in a court of law and sentenced punishment for that crime and completes the punishment as ordered to do so, has the debt to society been paid?

If your answer is no, then why do we have written laws governing the minimum and maximum sentences allowed for a certain crime, but yet we do not think the debt is paid back? Is this a form of doubt in our laws that govern our country that we shout yes put them in prison or rehab because our sytems will rehabilitate them.

If your answer was yes that their debt to society for their crime was paid for, then is it fair that we still punish these people by refusing housing and certain jobs (as long as it didn't pertain to the crime committed. i.e. child porn for daycare worker, etc.)

If an African American guy with no kids or wife with stable, reliable, valid income applies for an apartment as well as a hispanic woman with three children and no husband and a caucasian male with no job and no liable income on record, all apply for an apartment and the caucasian gets the apartment is this discrimination?

If a Hispanic male with a history of alcohol abuse, spousal abuse with current CPS case pending for his two children, and an African American female with four children that are constantly left alone while she runs the block making drug sales, and a caucasian female with two years of verifiable good rental history, along three years of reliable, valid employment but has a felony charge that has been completed for over 6 years for shoplifting all apply for an apartment is this discrimination when the hispanic male gets the apartment?

If a job or housing application is not allowed to ask if you are male or female due to recent discrimination orders because it felt like it was discriminating against gay, bisexual, transgender people, but it is okay to ask a person about criminal history and judge them on that because they are considered a felon. Is this really fair?
