So? A shovel can kill people.


Consider how many people a shovel versus a car can kill in a minute.


I'm not sure what's your point. But the direct answer is, it's a very similar number of people, not even an order of magnitude difference.


FFS "not even an order of magnitude".

As another commenter linked, cars can kill at least 86 people at once: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_Nice_truck_attack

Please share any instance where a shovel was used to kill even 8 (let alone 86) people in under a minute.



I am pretty sure that it was meant "unintentionally". I would say that nobody has killed another person with a shovel unintentionally since shovels exist (maybe injure). OK maybe one since shovels exist /s

Really not sure you're correct here.


Note: 'can kill' >= 'has killed', you have only shown the latter.


Don’t feed the troll.
