I agree with @MFrankJohnson that moving the contact to Lifecycle stage of Other would be a good approach.
But also tend to think of Lifecycle as the highest level of classificaiton, reflecting the status of other information. To which end I might recommend that you make use of a lead status value equal to 'disqualified' or similar and then using this to move the lifecycle statge automatically
It's also a good idea to segment your lifecycle stage = other contacts with a custom property so that you know why they are there.

Ok, I'm not really understanding what you are saying or how to create this Lifecycle stage.
Are you saying that I should be creating a Lifecycle stage for everyone automatically?
I did read the 2 links Frank gave me, but the properties idea doesn't seem like something I want to do since if I understand correctly, it's just fields of info you want to get from your leads.
I did undertand the filters explanation page, but that doesn't seem right either because I don't want to have to filter the main contacts page just to see who's still a fresh lead.
I want to hide leads that are dead, but keep the main contacts page live without having to filter it every time I want to see it.
Are there any videos that can explain how to do this? Maybe that's better.
If you need HubSpot's assistance, and your subscription does not include HubSpot technical Support, @RapidFinancial I am on standby for anything that requires HubSpot's involvement.
The dropdown display for the single checkbox is the expected behavior for the checkbox. Because the checkbox has two options of "yes" and "no", they display in a dropdown fashion.
You can then filter by lifecycle stage is not equal to 'other'.
Similarly, you could create a custom contact property for "bad leads" and assign a value to the bad leads. Again, you can filter your main contacts view to filter out contacts who have a value in "bad leads".
Please let us know where you are getting stuck if you have further questions.
