To me, the difference is that with marijuana, you’re aware of the impairment more and tend to be more careful (eg not drive).

Yeah weed makes you pretty docile too, the only exception I've seen are people with proper mental issues (and those should stay away from any mind-altering stuff).

How many times have you seen drunken people get aggressive and start fights ie in bars, or do domestic violence? Stoners would just laugh hard and say something deeply incomprehensible to sober person

At least where I live - Spain - there are a good number of traffic accident deaths that test positive for cannabis [1]. Not as high as alcohol, but it's the number one illegal drug ahead of cocaine.
