Wow, it must be a really smart gun. It can run down the street and kill someone.

I do not get your point.
A gun is just an extension of your arm. A trained dog may also be an extension of what you want him to do, but not as predictable.
A pit bull, as well as a few other breads, are loose canons.
I really do not know why anyone would want the risk of owning one.
