A Brother on Thebluelodge.org (cemab4y) has become the latest target of a tyrannical GL system. The Brother outlines in great detail what transpired along with copies of the communications between himself and his GL. Here is a excert from one of the GLs response to him.
First let me thank you for the quick response. I am sorry to tell you that under the Grand Lodge of Kentucky Constitution and Recognition we do not recognize Prince Hall. As we do recognize The Grand Lodge of New York and the Grand Lodge of Oklahoma it does not mean that we recognize Prince Hall just because they do. Your membership in the New York lodge was predicated on your membership in Bowling Green 73 and the Grand Lodge of Kentucky. So therefore, you have violated your oath and obligation within the Grand Lodge of Kentucky F. & A.M. for visiting a clandestine lodge and having Masonic relations with a clandestine mason. Under the Constitution of the Grand Lodge of Kentucky F. & A. M. and under the TRIAL CODE & DISCIPLINE / SECTION 2 - DEFINITIONS. (k) UNMASONIC CONDUCT – A Mason is guilty of unmasonic conduct if he: (8) Violation of an oath lawfully taken is Masonic offense.
You will be formally charged under the constitution of the Grand Lodge of Kentucky F. & A. M. and expelled from our membership. We will also notify the Grand Lodge of New York of your expulsion from the Order.

MW Grand Master Stinson has extended fraternal greetings to the MWPH Grand Lodge of Alabama and has invited all Grand Lodge officers of the MWP Grand Lodge to attend the annual communication of the Grand Lodge of F& AM of Alabama in November. Grand Master Stinson also will announce cross visitation between both Grand Bodies as soon as possible.
Also in attendance at this meeting was Karl F. Reed II S.G.I.G. of the AASRSJ Orient of Alabama that he shall declare that all PHA Masons who are members of the AASRSJ or members of the PHA AASR are welcome to attend any and all meetings of the Valley's in Alabama.
MW Grand Master Stinson stated that Alabama Governor Bob Riley will attend the annual communication in November to officially welcome this full recognition of PH in Alabama.
MW Grand Master Stinson stated an offical letter would be sent to all lodges informing them they are required to allow their PH Brothers admission into all lodges just as soon as hell freezes. April Fools ain't it wonderful? You may all pick yourselves up off the floor now and get back to reality, racism is still alive and well here in Alabama sadly...
I have to admit, it had me going there for a moment. Nice April fools there "Stealth", I was starting to swell with pride that maybe there was hope.
