It is your right to hate them, but the exact same statements could be used about people.

Ideally, human criminals are removed from society.
When someone suggests that hey, maybe this person committed a crime because they had terrible parents, the answer is "awww, mommy didn't love him enough? Boo hoo hoo. Now let's see how he likes being raped by Bubba in the jailhouse for the next 8 years".
If a dog commits a doggie crime (biting a human), that logic doesn't apply. "He's not a bad dog, he has a bad owner".
I like dogs myself, but I figure if an unprovoked dog attacks or bites a person, the dog has given up his right to live with the people. Does that mean he goes to doggy heaven? Maybe. I don't know where else he's going to go.
That being said, I don't know if "breed bans" are fair either. What about "breed bans" for people? Know what I mean? Like if you want to own a pit bull or some other intimidating-looking dog, you have to be the right "breed" of person. You have to be of a certain age (at least 30). If you have tattoos on your neck, face, or head, you are out. You can have another kind of dog, but not that kind.
This would, of course, be hard to enforce and probably in violation of someone's civil rights, but you get the drift. If you want to own a certain kind of dog because you think it makes you look like a tough guy, you can't.
