Do certain breeds make you cross the street?

Do you or friends you know cross the street or take your dog out of the dog park when you see a Pit Bull, other bully breeds, Doberman, Shepherd or Rottweiler come near? If you own one of those breeds have you stepped up to train and socialize your dog in the real world?
