I just got wind of this and I did not believe it but then I went to YouTube and it's true. This is disturbing to me. Back when I was young and foolish I thought that in twenty years, with the new way of thinking, this sort of thing would be history. Sorry if a thread has already been made about this but it really is disturbing.

Tracy, I'm guessing you're not getting a response here because it's such old news, which has been talked about all over the boards and in the news and tabloids and elsewhere on the net. But, yes, Amber made a number of statements that show her ignorance.

yep Tracy, in many opinions Amber's anti-semitic statements are the reason why there are no interviews on the morning show, Housecalls or anywhere else as CBS/BB wanted no reporter to ask any questions regarding Amber's statments regarding the Jewish community and in one statement the AP said they refused to not ask the questions as it would not be true reporting if they did not. So, since the news media would not abide by not asking her about her statements, CBS/BB cut off all interviews.

Jessica & Zack are also outside of the house, but their fan threads are still in general discussion. A little confusing finding you're fav's threads. Actually they're ALL outside the house now lol.

Amber offened an entire race of people. Explaining it away as I have read elsewhere by her being ignorant does not excuse this.

It's a religion--NOT a race!

actually, it's both. one can be of Jewish decent (an ethnic group originating in the Israelites of the ancient Middle East) or a participant of Judaism (the traditional faith of the Jewish nation). someone of Jewish decent may not necessarily practice Judaism. and, someone who practices Judaism may not necessarily be of Jewish decent. both are called Jews.

still not a "race" Ethnic origin, yes. Technically, there are three races ( personally I think it's kind of an outmoded way to classify humans) Caucasian, Negroid, and the unfortunately label Mongoloid ( from the Mongol region in Asia) Jews are Caucasian as are Arabs, people from India, Spain, etc. You get the idea. Lots of people confuse ethnic origin with race.
