Does pot make anyone into a violent criminal? No way to be 100% certain, but Id actually lean towards no.

I guess what I was trying to say is that stupidity, not marijuana causes those things. If stupid people think smoking weed will enhance casual sex, then they're idiots. If you know how to control it and yourself and your decisions, then a lot of those things wouldn't happen. If you smoke in a bathroom at an arena, you're dumb. If you go to the drive through and do what those guys did, you're dumb. If you play with a loaded gun, then, well, you know.
I'm just tired of weed being the excuse when people do stupid things. If you're gonna smoke, then know to have some common sense. But, I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, however I can see how that comes across as insulting.
