The project is the first to demonstrate that cannabis is not only linked with violent crime but is the cause.
Violent incidents monitored by the study based on the lives of more than 1,100 American psychiatric patients included assaults, attacks with weapons and rapes.

Yeah, using psychiatric patients as your study group kinda of throws off the usefulness of the study when applied to the general population. And I am unsure how they got over the "causation v. association" issue.

I don’t know, it seems like some of the most prolific smokers around here are also the most aggro. It befuddles me.
