And I have heard of court cases restricting HOA rulemaking, I believe on

saying that.)

Precisely. Watch what happens to a HOA that tries to include racial
restrictions.

But that isn't constitutional. That is related to the Civil
Right Act. You don't have to be remotely conceived as a level of
government to run afoul of that.
