Erm... let see..

The laws at the moment says "It's illegal to smoke pots".

So everyone that's now smoking pots are actually doing an illegal activity which contributes to "criminlizing" (to use the same terms).

So by legalizing pots, these acts are all suddenly not illegal, hence the criminalization (if thats a word) is decreased.

So, legalizing = deciminalizing.

In that case, just coz we want less "crimes" in our areas, lets remove ALL THE LAWS, stealing is OK, driving through red lights is OK, hacking company systems stealing credit cards is OK, stabbing people is OK, forfeiting contracts are OK, remove all the laws and the entire place will be free of crimes!

hm?

edit: - removed to not cause commotion -

Use your head and think of the differences between legalizing pot and making stabbing people alright... comon.
