There’ll be a roundup like this occasionally, until I’m on the list myself.

Thank you for doing what you can to make sure those "forgotten people" are remembered and mourned.

Homeless people are people. When I say that, though, the response is usually, "Yeah, but...".

I can't even imagine somebody having a rebuttal to that.
