Sure. But it's not helpful to say that.

If someone says the police are especially bad towards the homeless, saying that they're bad to everyone just belittles and says that the concerns of the homeless aren't important.

Maybe, but it is a bit relevant in a pandemic. Even if you do not care about homeless people they will still infect others and use ICU resources. Compassionate treatment of homeless also happens to be what is best for everyone here, even the people who are not homeless.
