I read that at one duel, the other guy fired first at Jackson, who didn’t twitch. Thinking that he’d missed, he had to stand still while Jackson took aim and killed him. Jackson carried the other guys bullet in his body to the grave. He was not a man to be messed with.
And he did his best to drain the swamp of his time.
Once in Alabama I bought some barbecue sauce from an “Indian” whose stand was covered with anti-Jackson posters/articles. For whatever it’s worth he was willing to accept bills with Jackson’s portrait on them for payment, so I guess the hatred was not all-encompassing.
One more...
There was one group Jackson hated, and I mean HATED, worse than any other. The Brits.
