Actually, I think that the reason people DO say all the blah blah blah about 'paper' organizations not being 'real' pledging or that people who don't get beaten while pledging didn't 'really' pledge etc etc is becuase in actuallity, these people would probably be repremanded or what have you because of this view. Most organizations that have been 'busted' for hazing are just as horrified and upset as the parents, schools, victum etc. See, in most cases, it isn't the whole organization that is doing the hazing etc, it is usually one individual or a small handful of individuals that do the hazing etc. If the rest of the organization found out what they were doing, they would be in deep doo doo. So the people that come on message boards like this one are probably voicing an opinion that is soley theirs, not their whole organization. Of course, I am sure there are exceptions to this, but I believe that their opinions are voiced because they know that it won't be widely accepted by members of their own organization. Just a thought.
