Cant stand the term "snapped"

This word is the ultimate copout to admitting that your dog is dangerous and violent. "Oh yeah he was a little tired so he just snapped a little bit at your daughter, its fine". They love to replace "attacked/bit" with the word "snap". and instead of saying "it was completely unpredictable", they replace it with "he was tired". This is the ultimate downplay terminology and every time there is "a little accident" with a nutter, you will hear them use these words to justify. Thanks for listening.
