"&lt;img alt=\"Caleb Reynolds Racist\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2014/06/25/0625-caleb-reynolds-big-brother-1.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\"&lt;strong&gt;Big Brother&lt;/strong&gt;\" did so well with an alleged racist last season ... they're doing it again, but this time the family of a man who made racial and homophobic slurs has come to his defense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Caleb Reynolds&lt;/strong&gt; -- one of the new \"Big Bro\" housemates -- called Prez Obama a \"Muslim monkey\" and he also used a homophobic slur, but his family 86'd his entire Instagram account after a torrent of criticism. &amp;#160;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=\"0625_caleb_twitter\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2014/06/25/0625-caleb-twitter-1.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Reynolds' family members tell TMZ ... Caleb is being judged for something he wrote two years ago, not long after he returned home from a tour in Iraq. His brother tells us, \"A racist man doesn't fight next to a black man for this country.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;{{tmz_video_0}}&lt;br /&gt;A friend of Caleb's ... who is black ... also posted a video on YouTube this week defending Caleb.&amp;#160;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\"Big Brother\" premieres tonight. &amp;#160;Ratings went up dramatically after Aaryn Gries went on a racist rant last season. &amp;#160;We'll see what happens this time around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way ... there's no way CBS didn't know about this ... they do background checks on all contestants for reality shows and scour social media.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;{{tmz_video_1}}"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
