[QUOTE=RMD1;353091]It is in fact ignorance. She is so blind. I think what gets to me the most is that she is a [B][I][U]22[/U][/I][/B] year old college educated woman. She should know better.[/QUOTE]
College educated has really little to do with these things. It is about upbringing and environment. Even at college you can segregate yourself. Many, if not most, do. Just the way the world works--sadly.
[QUOTE=RMD1;353093]Exactly, but Ellen should know better.[/QUOTE]
I type Ellen instead of Hellen every time and have to fix it...no idea why
I just don't grasp why anyone thinks they can control Rachel's sister.

Usually in college you need to take race courses, regardless of your major. It teaches you a lot. I was never racist prior to college, but it still opened up my eyes a lot more. I also know people who were racist and had their views changed on some racial topics.
My point being that she should've had enough sense to not speak like this where she is being recorded. She knows she is being recorded. A part of me feels bad for her because she will NEVER get another job.
I'm 22 as well, and I graduated from college. Racist things aside, I would NEVER put myself in a position where I could **** up my life while filming a tv show.

Ugh,it's this iPad. It just changes words anytime is wants to lol.
Rachel's sister can easily be controlled and has been. She isn't Rachel.
[QUOTE=kvm1977;353099]By the way, I may be the only one but I like Kaitlin as a player. A different cast and she may have been a threat to win[/QUOTE]
I thought that until right now. She is thinking about not taking herself off if she wins it so jermey won't be nominated.

I went to an Ivy League school (Penn) and didn't have to take a "race course". Maybe that's something new. I was there in the late 90s.
She won't have any issue finding a job IMO

I don't think she's been controlled at all--she's definitely not Rachel--better social game--no strategy

Thinking is one thing--acting is another. Jeremy is definitely hurting her game though

Penn does have that requirement now, I believe. Temple really pushed for it to be nationwide. It's a great requirement.
If any employer even as so much googles her name this will pop up. Plus, there are so many big brother fans out there who will make sure her employer knows what she is.
I just hope she will see herself and realize who she is and change it.

We'll see. I don't even think she'll have as difficult of a time finding a job as Rachel did.

What did Rachel do that was so gross? This made not only national news, but it was global! I'm nervous for her protection when she leaves the house. Shelly needed the FBI and that was just because she evicted a fan favorite. Aaryn offended 2 entire races and the LGBT community. That's a lot of people compared to Jeff.

Honestly, "white people" seem more offended than minorities regarding this.
I think Jeff's fans are more passionate--lol

Andy Denhart & [url=http://www.realityblurred.com]reality blurred + the reality TV news digest[/url] would disagree with you about Jeff. He is still on his multi-year rant about Jeff.
Speaking of Kaitlin, I was shocked at how well she did in the HOH competition.
I actually think GM is the one who will have it worse when she gets home. She'll find out Nick never liked her and she lost her job. She already seems nuts now with Nick gone.
[QUOTE=kvm1977;353174]She may be the best competitor in the house--at least the best of the girls.[/QUOTE]
She is a great competitor. I think they have a house full of people who can win one at any point. It will make for an interesting final 6.
[QUOTE=RMD1;353177]They are trying to get Hellen to backdown Howard or spencer, I believe. I still have that feeling that Amanda is ****ed this week.[/QUOTE]
Seems unlikely they take out Amanda IMO but you never know. These aren't the smartest people and Amanda is a threat if she makes the jury
[QUOTE=kvm1977;353178]Seems unlikely they take out Amanda IMO but you never know. These aren't the smartest people and Amanda is a threat if she makes the jury[/QUOTE]
I hope they don't. If she keeps pushing so hard for Howard, she might find herself in a bad spot. It will depend on the next 2 days and how she acts. I'm hoping McCrae will step in like he did earlier today.

I really think McCrae sucks at the game but Amanda does push too hard at times. I just think a guy leaves--Howard, Spencer or maybe Jeremy. The guys were idiots (including McCrae) for taking out Nick--just stupid.

That was the best move for Mccrae. He was on the bottom of that alliance and they were going after Amanda,.

Disagree completely. I think the Moving Company would have turned on Jeremy first. Amanda will also hurt Jeremy's game more than she helps as they'll target that pair
[QUOTE=RMD1;353185]If Jermey does leave this week and if Elissa or Candice don't get HOH in the next 3 weeks (which I doubt they will) Aaryn makes jury. :([/QUOTE]
I'd actually like Aaryn to make the jury--especially if she's in the jury house with Candice, Howard, Helen or Amanda...they'll be blunt with her then.

I don't think that at all. Jermey wouldn't leave. He was setting it up perfectly. First Amanda, then Candice. (This is if Elissa went of course) that leaves Jermey with 2 girls and the other three guys by themselves.
Amanda will always leave before Mccrae and once she leaves he is not a threat. He's playing a good game.

That's true. I just want her to face the music as soon as possible and not wait until the end of the season.
