Toddlers murder a wild number of people.

This is exactly a toddler with a gun.

Edit for numbers:

Some might assume that toddlers and young children may not be strong enough to pull a trigger, but that is not the case, experts said. At least 895 children aged 5 and under have managed to find a gun and unintentionally shoot themselves or someone else from 2015 to 2022, according to Everytown.

Remember, children cannot purchase guns in the USA. Many also lack the hand strength to fire.

I apologize for the source.
