Here, you can actually get weed "legally."

Under state law, yes. Under federal law, which constitutionally supercedes state law, it's still illegal. Legalized marijuana in California (and the other states that have legalized it) relies on (1) state officials deciding not to abide by federal law (a possible constitutional violation and a possible violation of the official's oath of office) and (2) the feds not wanting to put the resources into enforcing federal law.
