Well, here I am. Thirty years ago our first little flock included an awful bantam rooster, who tried hard to kill us, and could fly up to eyeball level. He did, every day, and we kept him way too long.
Then, raising cockerels, and thinking we can reform the idiots who went for us, our friends, and anyone who came here. Not good! We got over it, and now only live with polite cockerels and roosters, three to five at a time. lovely boys, or they'd be gone, and no longer to another home with full disclosure. Just no.
And the fighting bird folks select for super aggressive birds who want to kill each other, and yet are totally not aggressive to the humans in their lives. So apparently separate traits genetically, and human aggressive roosters will turn up regardless of how they are raised.
As flock owners, we learn to see behaviors way before that cockerel decides on a full blown attack! Then, that cockerel can leave the premises.
And our most obnoxious rooster never went after the nearby horses or cattle. So fully capable of distinguishing other (non-human) beings who weren't threats.
It's fine if you want a separate coop for your nasty birds, but not here, not ever!
And I'd hope your liability insurance is really good too.
