Drugs - The Long Way Home | Retro Junk Commercial

I actually know the guy who was in this commercial. It is a great commercial. Powerful message!

Good for you, Kevin Scott! There is still hope in humanity.

This is one heck of a sad commercial...and so real!

the cops aren't enough we need the swat team or a new branch of police force to deal with this kind of stuff.

Or we just need better inner city public school education so that people realize they can make something of their lives and don't feel the need to join gangs.
Humanity kinda sucks.

This commerical still to this day makes my eyes fill. DAMN, that's powerful.

This PSA is probably one of the most realistic and saddest PSA I’ve seen. This PSA goes way beyond hollow “Just Say Know” BS and actually looks at it from a kid’s point of view that actually has to live through that nightmare. So sad but so very true.

this commercial hit home for me...felt lyk they were talkin to me..its madd tru..my neighborhood tha same exact way..

poor kid

This PSA always made me a little teary eyed. When I was young it was just nice to hear, that somebody realized it wasn't as easy as just saying no.

I remember seeing this and thinking his mom should pick him up.

This was one PSA that I think was very well done.

They aired this one for YEARS!

this one actually made sense. unlke the other high overly paid drug advertises that might glamorize the saying (the highly uneffective phrase "just say NO"

is what they call doing their part to help, is really brainwashing. Its a war not to be won. Drugs make the government rich, they allow it to leek in just enough to leech off people's misfortunes, end of quote

I remember this, too. Maybe if certain officials actually cared about fixing up inner city neighborhoods, this may not be such a problem for young kids.

I remember this one even then I always liked its take on drug problems in America.
