You miss the point.
Go into a pub, count the number of people there, then count the number *actively smoking* at any time.
Unless they're dedicated chain smokers on 60 a day, even those who smoke will only be doing it for a few minutes each hour.
So what's so hard about them popping out for a drag every now and again?

Do we take the same stance on pollution from cars and ban them from town centres? Why should the millions of non driving public have to breath the pollution from them?

Err, have you *heard* of "Park and Ride" schemes? What about pedestrianisng major shopping areas? Not only do they reduce congestion, they also reduce pollution!
