And freedom of the press only applies to hand pressed single sheet newsprint. It is an amazement to me that liberals have the intelligence to breathe.

Can we pay the same federal income tax they used then too?

They don't; it's autonomic.

[Democrats] call for the reinstatement of the federal assault weapons ban, arguing that the Second Amendment only applies to muskets.

First time I've seen democrats argue for the strict "Originalist" view of the US Constitution.

In 1776 the Constitution didn't guarantee homo weddings, abortions, welfare, anti-hate speech laws, Obamacare, title 9, Affirmative Action, women's voting rights, and a zillion other unwritten "Rights" that have been discovered in the last 240 years.

So, to be consistant, they would all have to be eliminated as well.

And are the democrats also arguing for slavery to be re-instated?

AND, distributed by waifs on street corners....

Next, radio,tv stations limited to 10Watt power?

Sounds reasonable to me if muskets are it !! /sarc

No joke, muskets were the state of the art military weapon at the time. Something comparable now would be a SAW or a Barret 50
