People who use cannabis are more likely both to carry out violent acts and to experience violence, according to one of the most comprehensive reviews of the evidence to date.

Misleading headline by changing the tense of the verb. Headline implies current or future risk, but study does not. Correlation != causation.

In the general population, people who used cannabis were around twice as likely to have committed a violent act as those who didn't; for those in psychiatric care, cannabis users were around two and a half times as likely to be violent as other psychiatric patients who didn't use cannabis.

My stoner roommates always seemed to lose their shit over the littlest things. But the power goes out bc one of them forgot to send our landlady the payment and they shrug. Hilarious.
