These grow ALL over our property. Small bright pink flowers followed by this fruit. The flowers almost look like currant flowers, which makes me worry that this is a dangerous doppleganger.
Berry ID please? I'm pretty sure its poisonous....

Found it, bush honeysuckle. Invasive. Looks like chainsaw fun for me!

Yep, and they're poisonous too. There is a similar lookalike in autumn olive berries, which are edible. You can tell the difference between the two because the poisonous berries of the bush honeysuckle are always in uniform pairs.

Yeah, this is a third opinion that it's a honeysuckle. Most types are poisonous. One japanese species isn't, but that's certainly not it! Other Berries to euthanise include:
Virgin's Bower (Clematis)
Rock Clematis (Clematis)
Yew (Taxus)
Sweet-Sallow (Rhododendron) - Much Deadlier than it is pretty. And it's beautiful
