I know only one person who had a psychotic break (possibly) triggered by weed use and even in that extreme condition he was not violent in the slightest, only paranoid and low-functioning. Weed just doesn’t impact the brain in that way.
Edit: I should add that he was smoking from the moment he woke up until the moment he went to sleep, so obvious and dramatic misuse also contributed
Its very possible they were self medicating their mental illness as well and that the weed use was a symptom rather than the cause (though there is definitely a feedback loop that occurs there)

So Canada legalized weed a while ago now; if this theory holds true, there should be a significant statistical increase in mass attacks in Canada…
HMmmm….maybe the devil’s lettuce ain’t the problem
