Your argument is based your intuitive view on the comparable reliability of dogs and people. It is your personal opinion that dogs are less predictable than people. Personally I find your opinion to be troubling, how can a much simpler creature be more complex and less predictable? There have been between 17 and 26 dog related deaths per year for the past two decades in the US. There were 28874 gun related deaths in 1999 in the US. These numbers don't tell a very complete story, but I think they are sufficient to raise doubts about your premise that dogs are less predictable or more dangerous than armed humans.
