Every dog has a genetic predisposition to certain behaviors, anyone who ignores this fact has their head in the sand or more likely defending their choice in K-9's.

I totally agree with that. Like I said above every dog, no matter what the breed, is fully capable of attacking someone. And I'd go so far as saying it should be law in all countries (not sure if it is or not in the USA) that dogs be on a leash at all times in public because nobody wants to take even the slightest chance on something bad to happen. I've owned a Golden Lab, an Old English Sheepdog and now a Pit bull (Molly). Never had a bad thing with any of them, all good dogs. But I think labeling an entire breed of dog worthy of extermination due to a few bad ones out of 1000s and 1000s of good ones is ridiculous in the extreme.
