112233, not all discrimination is illegal.  There is even case law in California saying an insurance company can discrimination against lawyers.  Can you imagine?

...and in New York saying that landlords can discriminate against lawyers.

I know, anecdotely, that my costs of doing business with lawyer tenants are higher than with non-lawyer tenants.  My most notorious eviction (which lasted over six years) was with a non-practicing trust-fund lawyer who made the action his/her hobby.  It did cost us about $100,000 in lost rents and costs.  But we did win.  (And we sold the building for almost six times what we paid for it -  ;D)

We don't (currently) discriminate against lawyers, but we do discriminate against those with poor credit and those who own pit bulls.  We do not discriminate against any of the protected classes of course.
