I've never heard of a Christian housing district. Are you sure of your
facts?



The vast majority of Homeowner Associations automatically reject Jews.


That's kind of a ridiculous claim. Where are your statistics? You have a
random sampling of how many HOA covenants? Zero? That's what I thought.

It's like boycotting cotton, because once upon a time the cotton industry
was supported by slave labor.


Exactly. First of all, restrictive covenants exists and are enforceable
with or without a HOA. Secondly, restrictions that are illegal are not
enforceable. For instance, my deed says that I can't put up a satellite
dish. The Communications act of 1996 voids that restriction. My HOA can
not prohibit me from having a satellite dish, but they can tell me where and
how it can be mounted as long as the guidelines don't prevent me from
receiving a signal or are not unreasonably restrictive. The FCC says that
the placement of the dish can't me more stringent than the placement of an
AC unit. Finally, because there are violations of the law does not mean
that there is no law.
