Yeah, the Masons near me are real threatening alright. Most of them are 75 years +, driving increasingly broken down cars and their “temple” is literally falling apart. I’m intimidated.

If you saw the list of Supreme Court justices who were Free-masons, you’d be terrified. It’s not only the size of the list, but which ones were free-masons:

Hugo Black (1937-1971), S. F. Reed (1938-1957), William Douglas (1939-1975), Robert Jackson (1941-1954), James Byrnes (1941-1942), Wiley Rutledge (1943-1949), Harold Burton (1945-1958), Fred Vinson (1946-1953), Tom C. Clark (1949-1967), Sherman Minton (1949-1956), Earl Warren (1953-1969), John Marshall Harlan (1955-1971), Potter Stewart (1958-1981), Thurgood Marshall (1968-1991).

At times, seven or eight Supreme Court justices were Masons. And that’s only counting the ones we know.

Assertions that nearly all American presidents were Masons is hogwash. Clinton, Nixon, Ford, and neither Bush appears to have been Mason, and Reagan’s ties were certainly weak, if they were at all real. But Roosevelt, Truman and Johnson were, and, conspiratorially or not, they put their men — who all shared the same radical disdain for precedent and originalism — in the Supreme Court.

Much has been made over the fact that Scalia, Alito, Thomas, Roberts and Kennedy are all Catholic. Jokes have been made about Catholic conspiracies. But they all do have one thing in common: they would be excommunicated from their religion if they were to become Free-Masons.

A generation of liberals (Bader-Ginsberg, Breyer, O’Connor, Stevens) appears to have been non-Masonic, but by the time of their service, the precedents had been set.

Each generation has its own sign of recognition.

Most are OK, until you get shot. The incident in long island was all over the NYC news, for a very brief time. Some lodges go way above and beyond pinching the naked left breast.

i agree, they are threatening, all those old men, especially the old man with a hat, over 75 driving old cars are a threat to the safety of the drivers on the road and pedestrians. It's a common story to read in the newspaper about an old man driving through the post office and accidentally running over his wife when he put the car in drive instead of reverse.
