Masonic Ritual Gone Awry

I have no idea where to put this so I figured Conversation was as good as any. Sad and tragically bizarre.

A man was killed during a Masonic initiation ceremony when another member fired a gun loaded with real bullets instead of the expected blanks and shot him in the face, police said yesterday.

I've read only a tiny bit on Masonic ritual but I don't remember the noise being a part of it.

I've read a bit about guns and I know you don't point them at people unless you want to kill them, whether they're loaded with blanks, real bullets or not loaded atall!

I guess if a shooting in the face doesn't get you through Chapel Perilous, nothing will...

Oh bugger. Being dead kind of fucks that up, doesn't it?

Maybe they should of stuck to the way the ritual was originally done instead of changing it to firing a gun loaded with blanks in someone's face?

Strange.

Hey, gotta move with the times. Can't just be a bland old traditionalist, or people will start thinking you're....

...hold on a minute.

Masons, you say?

Ah. Yes. I get your point!

I thought that was really odd... bombing the British Consulate is one thing, but a Masonic Lodge?
