Neither. Not everyone who happens to give a damn about these things is either a stoner or ill you know

I don't smoke cigarettes either but I wouldn't try to tell you that you can't or support criminalising anyone who does.
Anyway, to answer your question, I suppose I want to see cannabis legalised because I see the law as unjust oppressive bullshit to be blunt about it. It criminalises millions of otherwise law abiding people, creates a huge black market, and puts huge profits in the hands of organised crime. It massively increases the harm that the substance itself causes (both to the user and society) and the whole thing comes from a desire to legislate private morality. It's also waste of all that tax money that I'm forced to pay every month.
Just wait, one day they'll want to ban something that you like, and they'll be nobody left to stick up for you.
