I'm just saying, responsible dog owners do not make up for psychotic dogs.

However, I don't think this is the norm. I definitely agree that some dog breeds have a potential to do much more damage than others. Factor in temperment, disposition and ownership, there are a lot of variables contributing to behavior.
I don't think etermination is the answer though. There has to be a better solution.
More people die from cigarettes and drunk drivers than they do pit bulls.
We don't exterminate frat boys or big tobacco.
There has to be a better solution.
