You're the one who's "assuming" he meant something else.

BTW, I find it telling (not assuming anything) that you're perfectly fine with SCOTUS Judges applying totally different meanings to words in the Constitution than the original meanings of those words when it was written. But in this far, far, far, less important synonymous (not actually different in substance) usage of a word you get all high and mighty about it not being what the supposedly traditional meaning is.
common sense is hard for you isn't it
