I would argue that many people hated smoke in bars and clubs before the laws changed, but if you wanted to go out to these places you didn't have any other option so you just put up with it.
As a guy with asthma and who made my living in my early 20's going to clubs and writing about music/bands it drove me insane and I would often step outside to get some air. I also hated going home smelling like smoke. I would have bitched about it, but it wouldn't have done any good.
