The answer would depend on whether you're asking if FDR killed the people personally or as a consequence of his actions. Personally, he never killed anybody, but because he let the USA into WWII, many were killed as a result. However, this doesn't mean FDR is a killer as people would have died anyways as a result of the ongoing war.

It depends by what you mean. If you mean directly kill, I don't think that there is much evidence to say that he directly killed many people other than in his military service in WWI. Through his actions he killed 246,000 mostly civilians in the atomic bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, and indirectly many American and foreign troops in his stubborn refusal to allow the Axis powers to surrender conditionally which would save not only millions of dollars in resources, hundreds of thousands of human lives and would prevent other atrocities in occupied Japan and Germany. However, since he didn't allow that or convinced the president at the time when he was vice president to do that, you can say that he indirectly killed several hundred thousands of people, both American and foreign.

When were teddies invented?

Teddy bears can be traced back to the early 1900s, and are named after President Theodore Roosevelt. This is due to the fact that Roosevelt went hunting and the people with him tied a bear to a tree so that he could kill it. Roosevelt didn't want any part of it, because he felt that it was not a sporting way to hunt. So, a toy maker created stuffed bears dedicated to the President.
