This is aimed specifically at apartments and condos, not your personal property. This isn’t about not being able to smoke in your own “home”, this is about communal public places, much like workplace rules against smoking except in designated areas.
As long as they set up designated areas for smoking, much like schools, malls and workplaces, this shouldn’t be a problem for people.
Smokers have a right to smoke. However they should be considerate of others. They are not the only ones around after all

Excuse me, but first off condos are personal property; you buy them. Secondly, when you sign a lease that is your home. Yes, in an apartment there will be neighbors that have habits you don’t like. I once had to live above a woman that had to constantly crank up her (c)rap “music” to the point that we could not even hear our tv. This is why people want to own a single family home.
I would have no problem with an apartment owner designating his building as non-smoking, if he chooses to. I have a huge problem with govt coming in and mandating it. As far as “designated smoking areas”; I live in WI, we experience this thing called winter here. It gets cold. I don’t want to have to go outside to smoke my cigars in winter.
Agreed. Last thing I’d want is to inhale some other a$$hats smoke because the ventilation system is inadequate. I never approved of it in public transportation, the workplace, or any other similarly situated place. I puff regularly on ceegars, and do not impose that on others.
