The National Institutes of Health issued a $536,526 grant to the University of Illinois, Chicago, for a two-year program ending in July to study the smoking cessation of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender population.

“The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate the benefits of culturally targeted smoking cessation intervention for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender smokers,” the NIH grant description said. “Findings will contribute to the scientific literature on reducing smoking-related health disparities among underserved populations.”

The funding began on Sept. 30, 2010 and will conclude on July 31, 2013.

Why are those of other sexual persuasions DISCRIMINATED
against? For the same reason, America is now more
racist than it has every been in my lifetime.

Grant to the Univ. of Illinois at Chicago? Smells like a pay-off/kickback to someone.

[bigheadfred]

holy burning rubber backman with all the screaming they do how in the heck can they claim to be underserved they are undeserved and it should stay that way

[PGR88]

homosexuals are a protected species now, like snail darters and whale sharks.

Unfortunately, all of the males in the study died of AIDS or other sexually transmitted diseases before the study ended...

Either the group mentioned smokes a lot or they are being favored with money to participate over other groups.

They pay you when you do these studies, I believe.

The taxpayers never spent their money as the headline suggests. It was stolen under pain of fines and imprisonment, and the thieves then spent that money on this absurd study. It helps to frame things correctly before even debating them.

Just give them something else to smoke

[Conserev1]

So only queers smoke?????

Anybody can get this kind of taxpayer money if they pick the right topic. For example, propose to study how "climate change" effects transgender Eskimos and you can put as many zeroes as you want after the number in your application for a grant.

Somebody already went there:

Yes, the study includes transgenders.

Why waste the money? Let the queers, carpet munchers, cross dressers and other assorted perverted misfits catch cancer and die. Problem solved.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

That's a bad link. Click on this graphic:

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

Queers AND sickos who mutilate their bodies to ‘become a member of the opposite sex’.

BTW: they do not cut the man’s penis off. It’s used to make a vagina and the head of the penis is used to fashion a clitoris. The testicles are turned into the labia.

I saw the procedure on YouTube. It’s mutilation on a huge scale.

[Secret Agent Man]

I’m surprised this wasn’t cut in the sequester. /s

“Just give them something else to smoke”

Let me guess. $500,000 spent to come up with this slogan:

“Suck on this, not a fag.” ( British colloquialism for cigarette)
