It doesn't mention how long this law has been in effect, but the states and municipalities do have the authority to add protected classes to their equal housing laws (I remember one where sexual orientation was added), and this just serves to illustrate how important it is to know and abide by your state and local laws, and mind your P's and Q's when dealing with prospective tenants.

Why risk your livelihood and passive income by harassing your tenants sexually

I don't take felonies, especially if they are for domestic abuse, violence, burglary, robbery, sexual offences etc. basically anything that might bring harm to my other tenants, my PM (wife), or anyone else.

You just have to make sure you're not discriminating against the protected classes (i.e. age, race, gender, sexual orientation, ESA, etc.)

Certainly they won’t do more damage than your sub-renter is willing/able to cover.Talk to your insurance agent about coverage for people renting from your renter and serving alcohol to minors who maybe crash on their way home, or a person says they were sexually assaulted at your sub rental.
