And natural selection will play a role in making the species less agressive; particularly vicious colonies will be modified by human intervention, while gentle colonies will be encouraged and propagated.

Ya this doesnt sound too bad to me...LOL

Africanized bees do not roll this way. They give you half a second of being too close before they decide it is time to completely your up and empty the entire hive--tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of angry, angry bees. When you run, flailing and crying and soiling yourself while screaming "JESUS CHRIST I'M COVERED IN BEES," they will chase you for over half a mile.
