Glad you used the word "Can", as in not indicating that would ever
really happen. You've got to be nuts to believe this. The industrialized
world kills MILLIONS of innocent civilians every year in their wars
alone, no less the casualty count from falling into a vat of some 'food
product' at some centralized food factory somewhere and drowning in it.

It's unlikely that all the warriors Genghis Khan ever mustered had
collectively even eyeballed a million people in their lifetimes.
