"caused some people to say “relax, man”, and tends to make folks calm rather than combative......I've heard this over and over and it's a myth. People use and have used Cannabis to build up false courage to do violent or foolhardy acts. As a matter of fact this use of Cannabis to prepare to commit acts of murder goes back to early Assassins

I’ve seen lives ruined by BOTH products.
Alcoholics are mean, abusive and combative.
Potheads are lazy, shiftless idiots that product nothing but giggle and munch their way through life.
But neither are reason to give the FEDERAL government more power over us than is necesssary.
I (think) I stand with our Founding Fathers on this and let the STATES and THE PEOPLE decide.

Saying pot causes violent behavior akin to alcohol is a wonderful theory based on nothing. Millions have died as a result of alcohol. Thousands have died as a result of pot. Far more have died from eating peanuts.
Can you cite any studies of a connection between pot and violence?
