Nick, the dog bit a neighbor.

My point is the dog was not a threat initially, which Greens appears
to be telling them it's their own fault for adopting a known biter.

You're right. I'm saying that they shouldn't have got that breed of dog.
They're just asking for it by getting that breed. You have interpreted what
I said accurately.

Except that particular dog was not a known biter so your entire point
is moot. You can't take a bite incident after the fact and tell them
it is their fault because they adopted a known biter when they picked
the dog based on it's apparent stable temperament. They attempted to
select a good dog that didn't have any problems, and since all
rottweilers do not bite people, you can't say that all rottweilers are
known biters. It's basic logic, which you apparently lack.
