Nope. It’s a basic Title II and FHA claim under the theory that Airbnb is a “inn, hotel, motel or other establishment which provides lodging to transient guests” (paragraph 25 of the complaint) and that Airbnb host was an “agent, representative or employee.” (Paragraph 10 of the complaint).

I would be surprised if the FHA claim goes forward since it only covers “dwellings” not short term stays. For the Title II claim, the applicable exemption is in 42 USC 2000a (b)(1).

I did fair housing testing, and it was a real eye-opener. I hadn’t realized just how much blatant discrimination still existed. I had expected the discrimination to be apartment managers to be unfriendly or discouraging, I hadn’t expected people to straight up tell one person there were no open apartments and tell me

Rules that were changed by a voice vote that took place thirty minutes early while people were still registering as delegates.

“follow the rules as rewritten in secret and voted on at a different time than scheduled after Sanders delegates were disqualified”

As a Sanders supporter I can quibble with some of the framing (e.g. calling an elected official a criminal and saying they will lose their job isn’t a threat or at least not an immoral/illegal one), but I really appreciated the article as a whole. It’s always interesting to hear how people justify their behavior and

The Texas Peace Bond (TCCP Ch. 7) isn’t really analogous - it’s a lower level proceeding (JP court) limited to prevention, and I haven’t heard of it being used in resolving a criminal case. The closest formal equivalent here would be deferred adjudication (TCCP Ch. 42.12 Sec. 5), although many counties also have

Check this guide first if you’re thinking about a hidden audio recorder or camera. Bringing a hidden camera to a private meeting with the administration could be a felony in Georgia. (You’d need to compare this case (warning: child abuse, barring surreptitious recording of an attorney-client meeting by the client)

Congrats on winning the oppression olympics.

It was the right ruling given the law, but Oklahoma needs to (and probably quickly will) fix that law and everyone should see if their state has the same problem.

That’s not the case. The key question is whether he was discriminated against because of his gender not whether all men were treated badly. For example, a school that allowed a professor to sexually harass a single student could be guilty of a Title IX violation.

You won dude, declare victory and go home.

I love how a game can add naked women and get props for its feminism.

It’s painful to see that big lie.

There’s a kernel of truth there - resistance to anti-Black state violence has mainstream tolerance in a way that resistance to anti-Muslim violence doesn’t. That’s not on Black Lives Matter, that’s on the media and politicians who are ignoring the problem and the national security apparatus that is silencing and

A 2007 study funded by the National Institute of Justice found that 42 percent of college women who were physically coerced did not report their attacks.
