That's why it's hard to get stuff done, people are unreasonable.
If he's aware that their are dangerous owners, how does he propose controlling them? Tests and licensing to own dogs, generally?

Maybe he's right. Maybe there are bad owners out there. It's also difficult to control whether bad owners get dogs. So maybe it would makes sense to have less dangerous dogs, especially in urban areas.

I just don't see how the existence of bad owners is an argument for having more dangerous dogs.
