Where do you draw the line then? Caffeine? St Johns Wort?

People take drugs, and they're going to do so whether they're legal or not. People have addictions and control issues with food too, we're not talking about banning MSG or sugar. The majority (not all) of the harm comes from the illegal market they exist in. A controlled environment can only make things safer for people, and provide a basis for supporting people with issues. This works everywhere it's been tried.
