I support legalising, but if I was going to take a devil's advocate position then:
- High taxes mean the black market for marijuana still is rampant, but now demand is higher and the drug is hard to control.
- Their is still no fantastic way to test for THC use for drivers.
- Federal laws mean cannabis businesses need to use hard cash, because they can't use banks - this means they are targets for robbery.
- Demand rises. We don't know what effects more people smoking marijuana will have on society.
As I said, I'm in favour and think most of these arguments are kind of bogus (although I think many legalisation proponents ludicrously overemphasize its importance), but you never know what crazy things can happen, until you do it.
