All Realtors are held to a higher standard, based on the CODE OF ETHICS:
In recognition and appreciation of their obligations to clients, customers, the public, and each other, REALTORS® continuously strive to become and remain informed on issues affecting real estate and, as knowledgeable professionals, they willingly share the fruit of their experience and study with others.
They identify and take steps, through enforcement of this Code of Ethics and by assisting appropriate regulatory bodies, to eliminate practices which may damage the public or which might discredit or bring dishonor to the real estate profession.
REALTORS® having direct personal knowledge of conduct that may violate the Code of Ethics involving misappropriation of client or customer funds or property, willful discrimination, or fraud resulting in substantial economic harm, bring such matters to the attention of the appropriate Board or Association of REALTORS®. (Amended 1/00)
That STILL doesn't say your PRIVATE life is up to scrutiny. Of course Amanda has now made her private life public and maybe incurred the wrath of the real estate PTB.

"eliminate practices which may bring discredit or dishonor to the real estate profession"
Spouting racist comments qualifies.
Even though YOU aren't understanding of the Code of Ethics, I would hope that Amanda understands it. I'm sure her mom, who is her BIC understands this. I know I understand it.
All Realtors must let their association know if they are charged with any crimes. Not just a crime that happens while they are working but ANY crime that happens from spousal abuse to robbing a bank! So, if they are arrested during their TIME OFF WORK, they must still notify their association. Realtors are held to a higher standard. Amanda isn't portraying Realtors in that light.
I'm sure if you did more research on the Realtors Code of Ethics, you'd find more of what I'm saying. I've done the best I can, for you and just don't have the time to debate this any further.
Like I said, we will see what happens once she is sent out of the house.

That's okay but YOU started it if you remember correctly. Thanks for the info.
It might have been my imagination but I thought McCrea looked cleaner on tonight's (Wednesday) show.
Yes I agree! McCrae looked a whole lot cleaner this week. Maybe because he's been distancing himself from dirty Amanda . (she can make any person dirty with her thoughts and mouth).
News: Read the Big Brother Expanded Season thread about Spencers police investigation on his porn comments.
OK, so I read what he said...I think without a doubt, he was joking. We do not have to like the joke, but I do believe he was joking. Additionally, the Conway AR police have said there is nothing to the complaints.
You know, contestants have said some really stupid things over the years. I think that because this season we have SO MANY hamsters that are putting foot to mouth so frequently, that we've lost our ability to figure out when they're joking. We've ALL made jokes that would be considered "un-PC" by at least one other person in this world...we just are fortunate not to be on TV when we do it. That's not to say we make a lot of racist comments or terribly inappropriate jokes about kiddy porn, but that we really have to pay attention to context.
I think Spencer is probably not the sort of guy I'd hang out with but I've certainly heard less than perfect comments from people I work with, or friends, or family members, over the years. We've become so atuned to what's wrong that we have no perception of forgiving someone who's has stepped in it. While I still agree that the child porn comments were really bad, I still believe he was kidding. We don't have to like him but I don't think he deserves to be persecuted either.
My Dream for a great end to this season would be:
Seeing GM and Aryan sitting on the jury with Black eyes that Candice gave them in the jury house
