No, I ment owning. When insurance people run statistics on life expectancy, a lot of factors are considered. Smoking is one. Eating habits, history of disease, amount of excersize, these all count as well. But lets consider two scenarios.
1)A perfectly normal and average person drives an average car, but owns one of your 'killer dogs.'
2)A perfectly normal and average person owns an average dog, but owns a sportscar.
Neither the 'killer dog' nor the 'sportscar' is necessary, but the man with the sportscar will have a higher mortality rate.
This is not a slipperly slope argument at all, I'm not that much of a dumbass.
Just take things in perspective.
