Progressives do believe in discrimination

The hateful intolerant left on full display.

A Massachusetts landlord told a Harvard University graduate student that he wanted her to move out of her apartment because her legally owned firearms made some of her roommates uncomfortable.

"Since it's clear that Leyla wants to keep her firearms, it would be best for all parties if she finds another place to live," Dave Lewis, president of Avid Management, said in an email to the household obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The request that the student, Leyla Pirnie, move out came after her roommates searched her room while she was not home and found her firearms. That prompted one of the roommates to email Lewis requesting he verify that Pirnie was in compliance with applicable firearms laws.

"We discussed with Leyla that all of us are uncomfortable with having firearms in the house, and that their presence causes anxiety and deprives us of the quiet enjoyment of the premise to which we are entitled," the roommate wrote to Lewis.

Not legally. Can a business legally put up a sign that says, “no shirt, no shoes, no service”? YES! There is a list of things that are not legal to discriminate against. You would do yourself a big favor by checking that out!!

Was there a sign that said no legally owned fire arms allowed? Can you put up a sign that says no transgenders allowed?

Pathetic liberal Harvard snowflakes.

The "me-to" movement apparently has not made it to Harvard. 

[Pirnie said her motivations for owning firearms have been ignored even though she shared them with her roommates. While an undergrad, she said she was in a physically abusive relationship. She said the experience is part of what drives her to be armed.]

Is "breaking and entering" not a crime at Harvard?

["What I find uncomfortable is coming home to find out that six people I barely know went into my bedroom without permission and went through every single one of my drawers, without any regard to my privacy whatsoever,"]

Now that many places have recreational marijuana legalized, should a decent roommate be forced to endure the stench and contact high from a roommate "exercising their constitutional right to go out of their mind"?   Plus, if a roommate has drugs, the whole apartment is in danger from a drug dealer shaking down everyone and anyone in the complex.  Not to mention cops busting down the door one day and there being collateral damage.  But Liberals will gladly take the right to defend yourself away and protect your right to kill your baby...but will go to the mat for your right to get high.

Jesus, anytime now...stick a fork in us, we`re done!

" after her roommates searched her room "

are arrest warrants being issued for breaking and entering or illegal entry?  how about civil rights violations?  

By the way if I told you that I've never had anybody tell me I couldn't carry in a library or government office what would that tell you?

This young woman had a right to her privacy, if not legally, then at least morally, a right that was clearly violated.  At a minimum -- This young woman needs some new friends, and/or a locking door to her room.

As to the request that she move out, it seems to me that if her rental agreement did not specifically address the ownership or possession of firearms, even if legally owned or possessed, then they are on very weak legal grounds to force her to move out.

Back in my 1970's college days, we had a couple guys kicked out of our house.  Different situation, as it was an off-campus (national) fraternity, but the housing was only for members.  We ended their membership, then evicted them.  One was for excessive and open drug use (marijuana) and the other guy was booted because for some reason he pulled a knife on some girl at the university library (suspected attempted forcible rape).  Our fraternity was wild enough back in those days, we didn't need those elements among us, and though some might have questioned our standards, we still had some..

Wouldn’t have a clue. Arizona is a deep red state and a little wild westy and I was in a mall which very clearly had a big red and white sign that said NO FIREARMS ALLOWED and NO SHIRT, NO SHOES, NO SERVICE. Red mountain Mesa city public library says at the front door — weapons must be left in your vehicle or put in provided lockers at the door. You should read the definition posted earlier about ignorant. If I rent you a room in my property and I don’t want you have a gun, drugs, or barbecuing in the front yard I can do that. You will then either go someplace else or comply. What I can’t do is tell you that because you are gay, you can’t live here. I also can’t deny you the apartment because of you telling me you are over 70 yrs old or because I don’t like your race and there are a few others. I can stop you from having gun on my property. You can call me names and insult me all you want with your bogus claims against. Es ist mir ganz Egal!! (It is to me entirely unimportant)

Why can you discriminate against gun owners who comply with the law? What is the difference between owning a gun and be transgender? Why can't a business put up a sign saying transgenders will not be served?

You should direct that question to the author of the 14th Amendment.
