I don't know when it was made, but does anyone know?

Anyway, I remember seeing a commercial for the Drug Prevention featuring two african-american kids walking home from school. Anyway, the one kid says "Walter is my friend", "the other kid says "He's not your friend". Then two times, one says "Yes he is", the other says "No he not". Then at the end, he says "I'm tellin' Ma!" But You My Brother... I Don't Care!!!! He do drugs and you aint do it with 'em.. Anyway, I always thought it was funny..

Never heard of it.

dlemond · 04-07-2003, 01:51 PM

I've seen it.
I think it was late '80s.

Anyway, it wasn't supposed to be funny.

It couldn't have been the late 80s since I remember seeing it 2-3 years ago..

Well I wasn't sure.

But I am sure the commercial was made over 3 years ago regardless of when you saw it. They do air old commercials with public service content.

It's at least 5 and as many as 10 or more years old.

I don't remember that one,
but my favorite one in the 80's was
''Drinking and Driving Can Kill a Friendship.''
The one with beer mugs and wine glasses that were filled,
and the were screeching tires and car crash sound effects
and the annoucer goes like.
''When friends let friends drive drunk,
friends die,after the glasses break several times.
Then he says
''Friends don't let friends drive drunk.''
Then a hand stops the wine glasses from crashing.
Then he says
''Drinking and Driving Can Kill a Friendship.''
You see those very often anymore huh,I thought
once when I saw love the 80's show on Vh1,They showed
one from 1987,I miss those Public Service Ads from the 80's!.
