I've long thought that the state park in Weehauken (NJ) where Burr shot Hamilton should be turned into the National Dueling Grounds for situations such as these. We would erect grandstands, and ESPN would cover them.
The first use would have been a decade ago when Chris Matthews insulted Michelle Malkin on his show. The next night, Zell Miller came on the show and told Matthews that his treatment of Malkin was ungentlemanly, unacceptable and that he would have challenged Matthews to a duel were such a thing legal.
A duel between Zell Miller and Chris Matthews would have been a ratings bonanza for ESPN.
I like that...a national dualing grounds.
That would keep the chicken hearts from getting into politics and it would help with term limit some of thd older and slower.
