Stealing is wrong. It should never be condoned

I can say that after watching Amazing Race almost from the beginning, I can no longer in good conscious, continue. I was hoping to see some penalty for the twins’ thieft, but it never came. There is a penalty for stealing a taxi and a penalty for bartering your own belongings. How on earth can there not be a penalty for stealing from cash or anything from other contestants. What next, no rules against stabbing, so that is okay? When Survivor became a cut throat game, I stopped watching it. I have been proud of the code of ethics Amazing Race, until now, has emulated. With remorse I will no longer watch this show. I encourage all who truly believe in ethics to do the same until some action is taken by the program to remedy this crime. This has become a dirty game!!!!

clearly the money was stolen – the two who took it knew whose money it was They should have been thrown out of the game when they came to the end. Horrible for CBS to keep them in the game

phil wouldn’t check in the rock star and lawyer, because he already knew about the passport. I now have the answer I needed to never watch the show I always loved to watch. It’s what they decide at their discretion.

I’ve watched and enjoyed TAR since it started, but if the thievery is not penalized in any way, I will no longer watch the show. This was out-and-out stealing, and CBS/TAR would show a major lack integrity if this isn’t addressed eventually.

TAR has won an Emmy year-after-year because the show is so well done, but this was just terrible. If this is not addressed soon, I will not watch again.

Will CBS/TAR sweep it under the rug, or will they do the right thing and penalize or eliminate the twinnies and Texas? If they choose to ignore the blatant thievery, they deserve the loss of viewers, as well as any future Emmy awards.

CBS/TAR…please maintain the integrity of the show and don’t send a message to viewers that behavior like this is acceptable.

Amazing Race consistently punishes contestents for taking a cab when they were supposed to walk to the next clue. What’s with not even addressing the blatant theft on last weeks show. I expected the twins to be eleminated as well as the Texans. I’m sure many families watch this show; what a poor example you gave about dishonesty. I am hoping this will be addressed in the next show or that will be my last time to view AR.
