I was making a joke because the people who talk at that sort of thing really hammer home the point as to why nobody pays much attention to "marijuana activists". I had a hard time keeping a straight face honestly. I just found myself staring at them like "Really?? THIS was the best you could come up with to speak at a rally??"
I appreciate your desire to learn, but that's the last place you'll actually learn anything trust me. You're more likely to have aliens land, whip out a huge bag of anti-gravity space nuggets and start rolling up joints to hand out. Just sharing my experience with you. You'd probably learn more staying home and taking bong rips to the History channel to be honest with you.
