People are outraged,not shocked.
Why give someone who does that a spot on a show that should know how to vet people? Plenty of ladies want to be on the show who wouldn’t do the things she has done.
This is over some “offensive” likes on Instagram and a picture of her at a sorority event that yes, had an insensitive theme but dozens and dozens of them go on every year in the south. What exactly has she done, other than be ignorant, for which she apologized? I’m trying to understand the outrage, but making her out to be a terrible racist person isn’t the right answer IMO. I feel like most people, if scrutinized in the way these contestants are, have something in their past that is shameful.
Maybe you are a perfect person. I don’t know. All I know is that I’m glad every little stupid thing I did in college isn’t publicly on the internet. I’m very grateful to be just 10 years older than her for that reason.
I’m more annoyed with the show than her. They were responsible for vetting ladies to go on the the show with the first black bachelor. They should have been prepared for something like this. I think she is doing a better job of apologizing and learning than the show, especially Chris.
I’m not perfect, but I knew that those types of parties were offensive and wrong in the 90s when I went to college in the south. She’s not a terrible person, but she made mistakes that should have disqualified her from being on the show. The show got what it wanted- controversy and publicity as interest in the show was waning.

I really like Michelle, the teacher. But, I don't think Matt is into her. She's a catch. But he doesn't want to play ball.
He's not into Bri either. They just have a lot of similar things in their past. Bri doesn't get it.
The big question is WHO is going to host the "After the Final Rose." It definitely WON'T be Rachel Lindsay.
I'm wondering if it'll be JoJo? And maybe she'll have Tayshia on as well to discuss race issues. Frankly, it's a tough spot... if you are the host and you say anything deemed "wrong," it could be the end of your bright future.

Anonymous wrote:The mean girls might have broken me. I've watched all seasons but the first two, the London guy, Ben who I found boring, and Arie. This is the worst season by far. I can't fathom how they think this is positive in any capacity. Why is this something to emulate in any way? Maybe I'm just too damn old to find this entertaining anymore, but holy hell, this gives women a bad name.
