Why would someone want to stink up their condo. 
Bad enough that you are breathing that ish in the first place, but then you want it to circulate in there 24 hours a day. 
Not to mention, have you ever tried to sell a condo that a smoker has lived in to a non-smoker?

We smoke, but we keep it outside.

I used to hate it when my neighbor downstairs would smoke on their patio. It would rise up and enter my condo. I would have to close the windows, wait for them to finish, and then open the windows back up.
If they smoked indoors, the levels are compounded with each cigarette and it seeps through walls, outlets, cracks, floors, ceilings, etc. and causes a longer-lasting more permanent and difficult to remove stench.
That's our problem here - the places are so poorly built/sealed/whatever that if my neighbor downstairs smokes inside (and she does) then it comes through our vents, through the walls, etc. and even stinks up one of our bedroom closets and the linen closet
If she smokes outside AND I have the fan blowing in we might get the smell of smoke on the air, but it dissipates in minutes.

Smokers are people, too and deserve the same rights and freedoms you have. Just for not as long...

And I think that's the important thing to consider - just because you can SMELL smoke doesn't mean you're exposed to any significant amount of smoke. And at these levels it then becomes a complaint of SMELL - like cooking or perfume or hell, even B.O. -- hardly something to legislate.
