Pot doesn’t cause anyone to do anything.

If the predisposition to commit assault, murder, burn buildings, and loot is there, it will happen regardless of whether or not pot is involved.

Blaming pot in this case is just another way for liberals to apologize for black criminals and their crimes.

And no, I don’t use pot or support its use.

“Pot doesn’t cause anyone to do anything.”

Dangerously wrong. Pot doesn’t simply enhance negative intentions, it can cause PSYCHOSIS - which includes delusions, hallucinations, paranoia, and disorganized thinking.

You are partly correct. Marijuana does not “cause” anyone to do anything, but it DOES release inhibitions, just as alcohol does. If one already has a predisposition to be violent, then they may well lose whatever control they have.
