Toilet paper was in use in China as early as the 6th century CE. Its use in the west was commonplace by the 1750s (coinciding with the rise of newspapers).

The first purpose made toilet paper was the Sears and Roebuck catalog.

You missed the part where I said "modern toilet paper". Access had a lot to do with it, yes. But in any case, back then the founders wouldn't fight a war over that.
The point is his insecure sense of self entitlement.
The militia guy didn’t specify ‘modern’ toilet paper. Why did you?

People can be bloody creative when it comes to bum wiping, as in the case of German composer Max Reger, who wrote to one of his critics, ‘I am sitting in the smallest room of my house with your review before me. Soon, it shall be behind me.’
