Robert Platshorn
Silver Tour has traveled around the country dispelling old myths and educating seniors and politicians about the real benefits of medical marijuana. We never stop lobbying Government Representatives and advocating for a change in out-dated laws
We lecture about how cannabis consumption is safer than alcohol, tobacco and most prescription opioids at senior centers and other venues.
FACT: No one has ever died from smoking, inhaling or consuming cannabis.
A growing number of countries and US states have decriminalized or made cannabis fully legal. We won't stop until every state and the
Federal Government of the United States has legalized medical marijuana.
Robert Platshorn, Founder The Silver Tour, teaching seniors the benefits of medical marijuana, was featured in the hit Showtime movie, Square Grouper. The documentary film told Robert's story of as a member of the Black Tuna Gang to his release from Federal prison. He was given the longest prison sentence ever given at that time, 64 years. Platshorn served 29 years and then created the Silver Tour.
Mr Platshorn's successful MEET THE EXPERTS events were spotlighted on Jon Stewart's Daily Show, CNN Money and the front page of The Wall Street Journal.
His "edu-mercial" Should Grandma Smoke Pot? has been seen on TV stations in a dozen cities. Dr. Lester Grinspoon of Harvard University called SGSP? the best program on the subject of cannabis.
He received and was High Times Freedom Fighter of the Year Award for his work educating legislators, businessmen and the senior population on the benefits of medical marijuana.
