I am saying most Fights especially in the Bars that are on every street corner and in every city are caused by to people indulging in to much Alcohol.

Pot Smokers are not the cause of the multitude of social problems caused by Addiction to Alcohol No Comparrison.

Growing up in a family where Alcohol was a problem I wished my Dad would of smoked Pot, it would of been a much happier household...

I have never seen a person high on pot get belligerent. I have seen many, many drunk people get aggressive.

I understand that part.

The part I don't understand is how the legalization of marijuana will make those drunken brawls go away.

If the legalization of marijuana will have no effect on that behavior (it won't), then why bring it up?

Unless you're trying to make the point that people will switch from drinking alcohol to smoking pot. Are you saying that? And what makes you think that?

I've said it before. I've known scotch drinkers and beer drinkers that won't even switch brands, much less switch to smoked marijuana.
