Default Motorcyclists Aren’t Targets

Nissan says, “In a city full of predators, prey is never hard to find — especially when the prey is the predators themselves.” The ad portrays a trio of motorcyclists as dangerous villains — predators in sore need of a good bitch slapping.

Default Don't know about anyone else..but...

I don't see the "target' thing at all. It's just an ad and that's that.

Yep, at least three of these threads where people can't seperate fantasy from reality.

At the very least this ad isn't cool. If it was a movie and told a story, that's something different, i.e., fantasy. But this is an attempt to sell a product with an aggressive message. That's what's wrong in my opinion. Whether it was motorcyclists, people in Volkswagens...or kids on scooters getting run down.

between this add you find aggressive and every car ad on TV that depicts drivers driving like idiots at high speed and bragging about HP. I can see why some might not like this kind of ad, but it's just another attempt by a manufacturer to appeal to the 'Grand Theft Auto' type A personalities.
