Similarities between Lincoln and Tupac.

Ahh, Laurie, this is something that has nagged me for years. I don't know how the different dictionaries define it, but I've always considered assassination to be the murder of a political figure. Or if not necessarily a political figure, the murder was committed for political reasons. I'm certainly no expert, but I cringe every time I read about somebody being assassinated when there was no connection to politics at all. I may be wrong, but if so it's going to be a hard habit to break.

And I believe the Latina singer you mentioned was Selena.
