And your example is false since I'm talking about trafficing. Since prohibition of alcohol ended violence surrounding the illegal sale of alchol also ended.
I don't think there's too many Al Capones in the alcohol business these days.
The same thing would happen in the drug trade if the profit was taken out of it by making it legal.

The trafficing violence might cease (it probably wouldn't, because of cross border trafficing), but it would be replaced by other violence. Booze and cigs are legal, but stores that carry such items still get broken into. Not to mention stoners are easy mugging targets.
