If the police can take a legal product away from someone, what is to prevent them from taking someone's guns if the police chief feels like it? (not that they don't basically have this power here in America)

It's the principle of the matter: if pot is legal, the police have to keep their hands off.

Indeed. How many times have you heard a cop say, "We don't make the laws, we just enforce them"? Clearly, these particular cops would like to do both.
