As a former smoker (3 years now) I didn't smoke indoors at home or in public. When I was a smoker, I didn't eat in the smoking section of restaurants and when the restaurant has one we sit as far away as we can. Having said that, I am a huge proponent of the Owner's Right to determine whether or not they allow smoking. Government can step in and implement no smoking policies in Government Buildings only. They have NO RIGHT to tell an business owner what they can and cannot do with a legal product. If I want to go to a place that allows smoking, I get to weigh my desire to go against the discomfort that results from being in a smoked filled environment. I don't think the government should be able to force a business owner to restrict smoking.
