This is the DE wording in 4603(b)(3), the Delaware Fair Housing Act: (3) To make, print or publish, or cause to be made, printed or published any notice, statement or advertisement, with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling that indicates any preference, limitation or discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion, creed, sex, marital status, familial status, source of income, age, sexual orientation, gender identity or disability, or an intention to make any such preference, limitation or discrimination.

I'm curious about screening for applicants who are registered sexual offenders.

@Steven Lowe and sure enough, the insults came flying - name calling, attacking my character, coming after me for my race, gender and sexuality, wishing harm to my family and myself - you name it, I think I've heard it in the last few days. 

The district attorney, Alvin Bragg, told prosecutors in his office in a memo that they should ask judges for jail or prison time only for the most serious offenses — including murder, sexual assault and economic crimes involving vast sums of money.And this ladies and gentlemen is called turning the asylum over to the inmates.

However when one states that folks with a record of a violent or sexual nature its pretty easy to say that is protecting people. 

They are not a protected class.Here are your protected classes per federal law:The FHA, to date, includes seven protected classes: race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, and familial status.http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/the-fair-ho...Colorado's list of protected classes is:Protected classes in housing include: Race, Color, Religion, Creed, National Origin/Ancestry, Sex, Disability/Handicap, Sexual Orientation (including Transgender Status), Marital Status, and Familial Status (children under the age of 18 in the household).https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/dora/civil-rights... 

Or if your intent was to not rent to a gay couple, and your state doesn't allow discrimination against sexual preference.You probably couldn't get away with it in CA.  

., Police Code § 3304Actual or perceived race, color, ancestry, national origin, place of birth, sex, age, religion, creed, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, source of income, weight, or height S.F.

I'd rather live beside someone like my husband then a sexual predator! 

Before we agree to working with inherited tenants, we mainly screen for criminal and sexual crimes to help insure everyone's safety.
