- salvar 9y agoFair enough. It felt like a wholly unnecessary descriptor to me, intended to lessen the value of that person's life.
- jmalicki 9y agoNothing about whether or not the person involved happened to have a permanent place of residence is a relevant descriptor to the situation at hand.
- brianwawok 9y agoGreat, and neither does their hair color, their # of kids, their name, their birthplace, or any of the other 100 details we normally include. Would you prefer all news articles were: > Someone was walking and a car hit and killed them. And that is the end of the story?
