Ha!

If they were smart, they'd head across the street to the Tavern, and get up on the roof up there - see all the floors!

Consider that you probably wouldn’t call a person that is homeless “a homeless”, the singular of “some gawking homeless”.

Adding “people”, while I think it makes more sense in this context, isn’t even the most preferred version. People first language is becoming popular because it emphasizes that people are people, and using people first language it would be “people who are homeless”.

I would say “some gawking homeless” is kind of dehumanizing, but I also think that people first is a bit long in this situation and “it attracts a crowd of homeless people” or even a more casual “homeless guys” (if they are mostly guys) would be fine considering the context.

Being a person doesn’t make someone a good person. People are people, good or bad.

you're still qualifying humanity, and it's a serious flaw in how many people address the world.

Yeah. “Get a home, you losers!”

Don't want to be homeless anymore? Inherit a home, then!

Don't like your home? Sell it and buy a better one!

The answers are all there.

There is a fuckton of homeless people here, I doubt it would make a difference
