I too, would be terrified if a thick, slow moving creature oozed its way through the streets viscously.
Jokes aside, I think there's a difference in intent though. If your dog bites someone, you don't get arrested for biting . You do need to pay damages due to negligence.
People who failed to control their dogs were convicted for manslaughter. 1 person at least was convicted for murder even.[1]

Which results in people continuously getting new pitbulls which attack hundreds of thousands of people a year, often with life-changing injuries, and kill about a hundred. We should hold dog owners more responsible.
