Robert ‘Bobby Tuna’ is one of my all time favorite people. Mr. Platshorn served the longest non-violent, marijuana-only prison sentence in American history. Roughly 30 years total. Since his release, Robert Platshorn has written books and toured America telling people about his story, and spreading the word of reform. He is absolutely one of the biggest assets that the marijuana reform movement has, and I will say it until I’m blue in the face – anyone and everyone needs to hire this guy to work on campaigns and reform efforts. He is one of the most dynamic speakers I have ever seen. If you are looking for the perfect gift for an activist, look no further. Or, if you want to support one of the hardest working, most dynamic activists out there, consider supporting Robert Platshorn’s work. I received the following message from Robert Platshorn and The Silver Tour:

Robert Platshorn is the author of Black Tuna Diaries. He is America’s longest (30 years) imprisoned non-violent marijuana offender. Raised in downtown Philadelphia, acting ambitions earned him a supporting role in a successful off Broadway play while still in high school. The same skill led to Robert becoming one of America’s most famous pitchmen. The late Billy Mays called him a “legend in the pitch business.”
In 2010 he founded The Silver Tour to teach seniors the benefits of medical marijuana. He has appeared in the media constantly to promote the cause, as well as speaking at universities, concerts, benefits and expos and in the media to promote the cause and tell his story.
