That is because it wipes out the conscience, especially in those under 26. When that part of the brain is still developing. It is also the part of the brain that keeps you from doing stupid stuff. Like putting your hand into fire, sleeping on a railroad track, voting for a democrat, etc.
Hmmmmmmm
Stop making sense - you'll spoil the Reefer Madness brigade's fun.

14 case studies - can’t show cause and effect.

Not a research paper, and no specific citations of research papers. (Noted in passing: “Researchers have studied alcohol and violence for generations, proving that alcohol is a risk factor for domestic abuse, assault and even murder.”)
“One fifth of those who were pot smokers (22%) reported violent behavior that began after beginning to use cannabis, whereas only 0.3% reported violence before using weed.”
They committed the less serious crime before committing the more serious crime - this is expected and no proof of cause and effect.
And liquor has much higher ethanol levels than beer - what of it?
The prohibitionists’ desperation is showing.
Pot destroys teens brains and makes them lazy and stupid as if smart phones and video games were not enough. But its going to be legal for 21 and over for tax reasons. It takes up too much of our court time which could be better utilized imo.
Trust me the higher the level of THC the more stoned you are which means even less likely you will move off the couch.
I suspect It is far more probable that the universe of individuals who are prone to outbursts of violence are three times more likely to use THC derivative drugs.
