Outlawing it will just drive the black market for it. We're finally just now coming to our senses about this with pot, outlawing tobacco would be a major step backwards.
Personally, I'm happy with the current situation. Heavily restrict where it's allowed, tax the bejesus out of it, and attach significant social stigma to it. I still know quite a few smokers, and pretty much all of them are well past the point of grumbling about having to huddle outside to do it. Make it unpleasant enough to pursue, and eventually it will fall out of fashion.
