It would be like if a gangster broke into you house and wanted to shoot you. He wouldn't stab you, he'd have his gun ready that he already used to wipe out your family, only this time it ricochets and blows a hole through his head and it takes him like fifteen years to recover his motor skills.

Why didnt he just hire an assassin or trick some sas dude to kill Harry?

It's not often asked in these topics, but why didn't Voldemort just eat Harry?

he didn't spec into strength

Why do you even need a wand in the Harry Potter Universe?
Where exactly does the energy for a spell come from?
Can guns work?

Why didn’t he just use an x ray vision spell to scan the house to see if Harry was in there and then blow it up from a distance?

Why can't you just accio someone's heart and kill them instantly?

i think he exploded or something

Wands are magical foci, as in they're crafted from woods with cores derived from magical creatures and plants and shit to focus the wielders innate magic into something that can be easily harnessed by an eleven year old.
Presumably magic is just an inherent quirk of the human population in HP's setting, whereby some are capable of tapping into and manipulating an otherwise undetectable form of minor reality-bending energy.
I think magic screws around with particularly heavy electrical sources. So long as the firearm doesn't completely rely on electricity, there's probably nothing that could have stopped Harry perching himself on Hogwarts highest tower and blowing all the Slytherin's brains out with a sniper rifle. I'm sure Dumbledore would have likely even approved.

Cause he's a sorcerer not a dick ass thief

Why couldn't the eagles just fly Harry to Voldemort?

No spell would’ve defeated baby Harry,, they all would’ve ricocheted off of him and kill Voldemort. He was protected by mother’s magic. Baby Harry Potter is the most powerful character in this universe

Based. Do you think mass shootings take place in the HPU?

Could he have stabbed, suffocated, burned, drowned or thrown baby Harry of a building?

Why is there so much focus on pronunciation of spells and yet during combat you apparently don't even need to say anything? also multiple times the killing curse is used without any verbal cues

bro just let him stay in the crib it's a baby it's gonna die from malnourishment after a day

The elite wizards don’t have to say the incantation

Kek this, just kill Harry’s parents and leave. The baby would die soon enough without no one to feed and care for him

this would make sense if Voldemort didn't also say the incantation several times at the height of his return (killing harry while he had the stone) etc

All the time.
Harry's constant angst and bloodshed in his fifth and sixth years at Hogwarts kept Dumbledore up night and day fashioning elaborate flesh golems out of the poor students that got in the boy's way. Nearing the end of his life, he could obliviate a throng of thirty or so students in less than three seconds with a single flash of his wand.
We only saw a brief glimpse of this in the toned-down films when Harry callously attacked Malfoy with one of Snape's schoolday emo spells, but in the books, I vividly recall countless scenes where Harry would suddenly awake in the middle of the night with an insuppressible inch to maim and kill indiscriminately. Once he ran out of acromantulas, it's no wonder he turned his wand on the elves, and then the students. It's a cruelness he inherited from his father you see, amplified into something grisly by his poor childhood.
