Burr Shot First Funny Historical Quote Shirt
In the infamous 1804 duel, Aaron Burr shot Alexander Hamilton, but the history of who shot first is debated: Hamilton fired his pistol first, but it’s widely believed he aimed to miss (possibly firing into the air), while Burr then aimed and fatally shot Hamilton in the abdomen, leading to Hamilton’s death the next day and effectively ending Burr’s political career. Hamilton’s shot into a tree branch above Burr’s head, confirmed by eyewitnesses and a broken twig, suggests an intentional miss, but Burr’s subsequent shot was deadly.
