IMO this is kind of a pointless thread. The "golden retrievers" above could be replaced with ANY breed name and have exactly the same posts about it. It's not breed specific to having problems with Goldens being biters or aggresive, ANY breed of dog can be so. It depends on breeding and the genetic predisposition of the parents as well as the environment the dog is brought up in and how they are trained. Again, this is just my opinion.
