Nevermind that many dogs in Detroit of any breed were vicious towards humans. But then I moved to NYC, which also has a lot of Pitbulls, but many of the ones I come into contact with in NYC are socialized to be friendly towards humans and other dogs.
I remember hearing and seeing on TV more about German Shepherds, Rottweilers and Dobermans growing up. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I didn't have to spend a large amount of my adult life running from Dobermans.
