Anti-502 people argued that legalizing pot, pushing it from a legally grey area to an open market, would draw federal/DEA hellfire. But there's something to be said for solidarity. The more states legalize, and the more state-supreme court decisions build a foundation of case law (on what will be some inevitable busts and arrests), the better off we'll be. We can hang together, or we can hang separately.

The Washington State Liquor Control Board has until December 1, 2013 to figure out what this new market will look like.
