True about the process to becoming a mason, but we have not killed or maimed any individuals during our process.

For that fact, individuals that go through the masonic ALMOST always have more respect for Masonry.

Again with the 1%. I prefer to be defined by the 99%, not the 1%. So stop with the maimed and killed stuff. If that were the inevitable result of being a Black Greek, there would be none.
Another fallacious argument is that our respective orgs did away with pledging as a result of numerous hazing injuries. FALSE!!! They did so because the state laws changed with respect to our pledging traditions as a result of white greeks dying of alcohol overdoses. Our orgs value the traditional pledge process. Its lawsuits that they fear due to laws as they are currently structured.
I know plenty of Masons that have been hazed. Masonry is protected from the type of lawsuits that Fraternities are subject to or else what you do could be dragged into court also.
