>You can argue that all world governments would have to be using only 1776 rifles before you could justify limiting the citizens of the USA to them. ...or that "freedom of the press" doesn't cover typewriters or computers, and only refers to the use of the same kind of hand-operated movable type printing presses that were available at that time. > I thought personal income taxes were not introduced in the USA until after the American civil war. 1913, the Federal Reserve Act, backed by and signed into law by the thrice cursed, never sufficiently to be damned Woodrow fucking Wilson, spit. It gave the Rothschild international jewish crime family a privately controlled central bank in the US and control over the issue of US currency, allowing them to set and charge us interest on our own fucking money, the Income Tax to pay the interest, and the IRS as the taxpayer funded collection agency to collect those interest payments for the Rothschild controlled central bank. That was the beginning of the end for this nation. All just as the Founding Fathers warned us against. ( Hitler was right. \o )
