My best friend died at 19 of a heroin overdose. She was one of the most wonderful and beautiful people in the entire world, but also troubled. She was more of a human being than many I've met since and I'm likely to meet.
And yes, the rest are human beings, no matter how sick and evil they are. You don't earn the categorisation, you're born with it, and with it certain rights. Human rights.
