You're making some wild extrapolations here. Have you ever watched your dog be mauled to death violently, literally ripped to pieces by another animal off it's leash that is 'harmless and just playing'? Have you ever tried to unclamp an attacking 'playful' dog that someone didn't feel the need to leash from the broken, panicked, dying husk of something that minutes before was an animal you loved? If not, I'd be careful with how loudly you proclaim ignorant opinions without consideration for people who might have a wider experience than you. Wisdom is knowing when to shut up and listen, sometimes.
