Andrew Jackson won over 100 duels, but only killed one.
An attempted assassin armed with two pistols had them both misfire, and the very not assassinated President Andrew Jackson beat him with a cane.
"On the last day of his presidency, Jackson admitted that he had but two regrets, that he "had been unable to shoot Henry Clay or to hang John C. Calhoun." On his deathbed, he was once again quoted as regretting that he had not hanged Calhoun for treason. "My country would have sustained me in the act, and his fate would have been a warning to traitors in all time to come," he said. Remini expresses the opinion that Jackson was typically in control of his temper, and that he used his anger, along with his fearsome reputation, as a tool to get what he wanted."
People were not boring in the past.
