message: Could somebody please help clean this up.  The section on the Shriners makes some serious leaps in logic.  Thanks  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phreed100 (talk • contribs) 16:53, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Shriners 

message: There is almost no mention of the conflicted history of the FOI. From founding to today, they have been split. In one split, they were dismissed for reasons of their paramilitary nature and history of abuse of power. Also, all the discussion of freemasonry is irrelevant to this topic and takes the FOI out of context.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Siddeeqm (talk • contribs) 12:14, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Context Missing 

message: I removed this section for a few reasons. The shooting belongs on the Khalid Muhammad page, it was not a significan event in FOI history. Also, the shooting was by a former NOI member against a person the NOI had suspended, so the Fruit was not officially involved.Njsamizdat (talk) 15:33, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Assassination 

message: Isn't describing them as paramilitary, in the first sentence, way too strong? I always picture paramilitary groups to be those like the IRA in Ireland, the right-wing death squads in Central America and even the militia movement. These guys seem fairly peaceful, don't train with guns or explosives and aren't they just a private security force? For all their 'scary' rhetoric the NOI have always struck me as a fairly conservative organisation. Sure, they march around in uniforms and flags but then again so do the boy scouts.
