Now we have to note that this was nothing like a duel, which would have been, for all its shortcomings, a highly formal matter of honor. It was a more like a gangfight. If you wonder where liberals' "projection" comes from, it's affairs exactly like this. They have a pretty good idea of how they would behave, and presume the rest of the populace is just like them. By this means, we end up with people who probably should not be trusted with a firearm being the ones to decide whether the rest of us can be trusted with a firearm. Tempe, Mores, assembly required.

This is two Democrats. In the early 70's there was an Ohio ballot issue to remove the constitutional prohibition on known duellists holding office. IANAL but AFAIK, official duelling is legal in Ohio. I'd have to look up tar and feathers, too, but silicone seal and fiberglas have pretty much made it obsolete. This isn’t like Burr and Hamilton.
