Am I alone in not understanding exactly what clientele Diesel is aiming at?

Arrogant young men who enjoy demeaning over the hill boxers?

Any other ideas? Please let me know.

We see things like that all the time in Kabul... No, really... Actually, that just caused me to have a "What the hell?????" moment

Shock value. That's the only explanation I can come up with. I guess in advertising, any noticing is better than no noticing.
