// Definition
The observation that cannabis events consistently experience near-zero violence compared to alcohol events where violent incidents, injuries, and arrests are common. Used as an argument for the relative safety and social benefit of cannabis legalization.
// From the Episode
The Emerald Cup was cited as an example where no violence occurred despite thousands of attendees. The contrast with alcohol-only events (where black eyes, fights, and drunk driving are routine) was used to argue cannabis should be treated more favorably than alcohol in regulation. Research on driving and cannabis was also discussed, showing cannabis users are more cautious drivers than drunk drivers.
