Keith Stroup probably regards his arrest yesterday at a Boston marijuana reform rally as a badge of honor.
While delivering a speech at yesterday's Freedom Rally, he announced:
"Eight hundred thousand people were arrested last year for marijuana. Every 41 seconds someone gets arrested for marijuana. I got arrested a couple of hours ago right here."
In all, there were 60 arrests. Those arrested received "Class D" tickets. Even with bad weather, 5,000 attended the event.
