By the way...the Zack child molester thing started with Danielle. Just for the sake of accuracy...

People keep saying that they should have "done something." But just what should thay have done? What could any of them have done if he would not listen to Danielle. What could they have done?

Allietex I would have told ED to stop and to find another way to try to mess with people's minds or I'd do it to him and if that didn't work then I'd do to Danielle what he's doing to Jen (or Kail, or whoever.) 2 wrongs don't make a right, but I think if I presented it to him that way, that he'd back off and come up with something else. I don't think he'd like to see his daughter treated that same way. And I wouldn't take any joy in doing it, it would be just words to make a point. I'd probably feel terrible about it, but if it got ED to change his tune, then maybe it would be worth it.

Well, I just guess we handle things differently. Nothing else left to say.

I doubt that he could have been stopped since from what Dick said to Dani he was being coached to do it by BB in the diary room. I have often thought the game is perhaps not scripted by BB but massaged to get the desired outcome in many cases. CBS certainly doesn't want Dick to go. He is their ratings ace in the hole. I imagine he was told what kind of a personality they wanted him to be before the cast him.

CMist, no the program is not scripted. But all Reality Shows have screen writers. No doubt BB does as well -- and they are there for a reason.

The other BIG difference that I see happening, Dick will admit to every thing he has said. It was his strategy and he doesn't really care what ANYbody thinks. Eric, Dustin & Amber on the other hand, I feel sure will try to use the "it's the editing" excuse.

Penpoint, I completely agree on the reality of Dick's explosive behavior and on the perception that it is somehow unreal because it takes place on a television set. The strangest thing for me right now is watching my abusive family dynamics played out in the Big Brother house. Having lived through it, I never thought I'd see the day where it was entertainment for people.

I wish someone would explain to me how Dick's behaviour is any worse than Eric hiding out up there in the HOH room planting seeds that Dick and Danielle have an incestuous relationship. To my mind, that is going to far and one of the ugliest moves I've yet to see in the BB House. Dick is at least up front with his hostilities, bases his grievances on facts and only uses the other players own words and actions against them. The incest insinuations are lower than anything that Dick has yet to inflict on any of the other players. Eric should be ashamed and he definitely isn't my idea of AP.

Citing the actions of others to excuse or even validate Dick's behavior simply isn't logical. In other words, Eric's comments have nothing to do with Dick's behavior. The comparison isn't part of the discussion.

It is sad that Dick is the oldest and he was the first to start this type of disgusting talk. I am afraid his bad actions and talk did rub off on the others. I wonder if the others would have started doing this so quickly without Dick to lead them down that road. I guess it is not surprising that anyone locked up in a house with Dick would start to talk nasty too. I don't think Dick's actions could have been stopped by anyone but the DR. And they obviously didn't want to stop him. So the others have now been dragged down in the mud with him. The difference to me is that the others will probably be embarressed and sorry when they get out and realize this. But Dick will just puff out his chest and be proud of himself.
