The wife just told me that some guy was on TV saying that marijuana doesn’t make people violent. I told her that may be true but it does make them stupid.

It doesn’t on its own, I would agree with that.

What substance abuse does do, in my experience, is amplify already existing negative personality characteristics.

For example, if one is an angry person, then one is likely to be an even angrier drunk.

If one is a stupid person, like myself, then one is likely to be an even stupider drunk.

If one has violent tendencies, then it is very likely that those violent tendencies will be amplified when one is under the influence of a substance. Any substance, including MJ.

It does however make you paranoid.

The guy, last year in Florida, who ate the face off a homeless guy, was high on marijuana.

Marijuana does not make you violent but if you are already a violent person it makes you a stupid violent person, dumb enough to do things
