No, Cannabis in itself cannot directly cause crime. Criminals cause crime, whether they use cannabis or not.
I do not believe nor have I ever witnessed evidence that even the effects of cannabis use can encourage someone under the influence to commit crime. In fact quite the opposite. Cannabis is renowned for making people want to sit and do nothing at all. Let alone be bothered to go out and commit crime!
There have been circumstances that PSYCHOLOGICAL addiction to cannabis could spur someone to commit crime in order to fund their addiction. But then this addiction is simply a psychological addiction. Any physical side effects felt from withdrawal, are simply pseudo, created by the concious mind and not in any way similar to substances such as nicotine, heroine or even long term alcohol use. The best way psychological addiction can be described is. "You only become psychologically addicted, to something you WANT to be psychologically addicted to."
Due to the law in most countries using cannabis in itself is a crime. So if there were no cannabis the crime of cannabis use could not be commited. And once again on the other hand if there were no law against cannabis use, then that argument would be negligent.
A large majority of money from illegal cannabis sales goes towards organised crime, so once again we've found another side to the dice. But yet another second glance shows that if cannabis wern't illegal it would be readily available, effectively ending a large portion of organised crimes funding. And so once again we see that every side to the dice, has an opposite face if you just take the time to turn it upside down.
