Oh I agree these dogs can be quite the liablilty. I have a fence around most of my yard right now, but I will be ripping it down to put up a larger one. I'd like to put up a five foot tall fence around the entire yard. Oh and fencing is F'ING EXPENSIVE for those that did not know. Either way it'll get replaced, the kennel that I am leaning twoards working with now mandates that you have a fenced yard.
The dog that I want is not a guard dog. I dont want a mean dog. I want a dog that is friendly to those that I am friendly with, and not to those that I am not friendly with. A personal protection dog is supposed to be a social out going dog, but at the same time one that will take out the trash when need be.
As to why exactly I want a protection dog is a combination of alot of things, and a very long story. Its not really something I would post out on the list. To keep it simple I'll just say I've had some bad experiences.

What do you need it for?
