RESULTS

Marijuana use was associated with increased impulsivity on the same day and the following day relative to days when marijuana was not used, independent of alcohol use. Marijuana was also associated with increased hostile behaviors and perceptions of hostility in others on the same day when compared to days when marijuana was not used. These effects were independent of frequency of marijuana use or alcohol use. There were no significant effects of alcohol consumption on impulsivity or interpersonal hostility.


So, correct me if I got this wrong, increased hostile behaviours and hostile perceptions on the days one smokes pot, then they calm down on days when they don't partake? Conversely, no significant increase in hostile behaviour from the effects of drinking alcohol?


And this is on a .gov website, with fancy ass fonts, and titles of authors. So that some dickwad Pence-like politician can source this shaky small study to form some new harsh bill to punish pot users. Or to use to deny legalization in their State.
