If they're restricted to either possession or distribution? All of them.
As George Carlin memorably opined about prostitution, which works on identical logic: "Selling is legal. F#*$ing is legal. So why isn't selling f#$*ing legal?"
If there's violence, or border crimes, or whatever else involved, then that's a different offence - notably, one that wouldn't be necessary if they just legalized drugs.
