Didn’t Alexander Hamilton die in a duel? So technically, it wasn’t a homocide.  – The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:|?]] ([[User talk:|talk]] • contribs).

Not sure why that was changed. I restored it. --- Jura 16:48, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
A homicide (NOT homocide) is any killing of one human by another, not only illegal ones. Besides, there is some disagreement if the duel was legal, even at the time.
So any duel is also a homicide, which is why the latter doesn’t need to be included here after all. Matthias Winkelmann (talk) 21:42, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
