 Dear Bill.

 Yes, hate crimes/violence against homeless people is out of control.  We
have documented 35 murders of homeless people in 1999.  The perpetrators
were largely teens and young adults.

 We have been lobbying Reno, but to no avail.  We want homelessness or
economic status added as a protected class on all hate crimes laws.

 Looking forward to meeting you next month.

 Sincerely,

 Michael Stoops
