Seems like a poor reason not to legalize it. Because people will steal it? How does its legal/illegal status prevent/cause people to steal it?

People steal and sell cigarettes/alcohol, the legal/illegal status of the substance (or anything, you were saying you could get your hands on a stolen fridge) doesn't seem to matter.

Also, if its legal and someone steals it, you can report it to the police. If its illegal and someone steals it, you can't really tell the cops, you might be more obliged to take the matter into your own hands (and cause violence).
