Well, no - it wasn't made legal. If it had been made legal for recreational users, they wouldn't be faking illnesses and getting scrips to go to these pot clubs. And if it was made legal for medicinal purposes only (by which I mean legal at the Federal level), then it would be purchasable at your local CVS/Walgreens/Osco and the pot clubs would go away.
The crime comes from it being legal at the local level, but not at the State or Federal level.

Exactly. Sometimes the devil is in the details, and a slight twist on a thing can completely change its effect.
A car with no steering wheel would look almost exactly like any other car - except it would be useless.
Treat this stuff like alcohol and not only would most of the problems go away, but we'd save a ton on the WOD.
