Founding Father, Alexander Hamilton was shot and killed in a duel for insulting Vice President at the time, Aaron Burr.

Can we add Kennedy (Vietnam) and Lincoln (Slavery) too? Or were their FO not related to their FA?

We don’t fully understand JFK’s assassin, but it is likely not due to Vietnam as Vietnam wasn’t a major issue at the time of Kennedy’s death.
Lincoln’s assassination could be seen as a defense of slavery and other Southern “rights”.
