I seriously doubt that--where did you get that information? Temperament is heritable, to a degree, and I won't keep any mean roosters here. My biggest stud-muffin is also a sweet, even-tempered guy who loves chest rubs (he's my avatar). He's quite virile, trust me.
I think a seriously human-aggressive rooster should be culled, though maybe some folks would want a mean rooster for free-ranging if they think he'll do a better job protecting the hens.
We will not breed bad temperament Roos - if there is ANY chance it is hereditary than that is too much of a chance. Just as reputable breeders will not breed animals of other types if their temperament is not proper. Bye Bye birdie!
