    You let idiots like Doug Walker influence you because today's generation doesn't care about promoting respectful ideals. There was no "stranger danger" feel to this commercial as a kid because we're supposed to assume that the girl already knows who Ronald is. Every McDonald's commercial I saw as a kid made Ronald come off as a well-known celebrity and rolemodel for the kids....Plus, since it takes place at nighttime, only an fool would assume that this commercial isn't set in the girl's home-neighborhood where she knows her way around AND that she's properly trained to be competent on her own (unlike the internet-spoiled generation of today, which is poorly educated by thoughtless teachers and stupidly repressive parents).

Years later I kind of had my opportunity when I was working at a small amusement park during the holidays. I didn’t do it but if I did I’m pretty sure Ronald McDonald wouldn’t come up but a security guard would say, “What the hell are you still doing here we closed an hour ago, GO HOME!”
