Really…does anyone need a scientific study to prove this one? If you do, there’s been another in 2016 to confirm what we already know – pot makes people more placid and less aggressive than alcohol. Researchers from Maastricht University in the Netherlands and Frankfurt University in Germany decided that the time had come to put scientific backing to what was and is a pretty obvious fact. Which they did, concluding that “The results in the present study support the hypothesis that acute alcohol intoxication increases feelings of aggression and that acute cannabis intoxication reduces feelings of aggression following aggression exposure.”
