If your main takeaway from the Central Park Five is that it doesn't matter whether or not they were innocent of the crime they were incarcerated for because they were a bunch of "scumbags" (I might have gone with "savages" or "thugs" if I was blowing the dogwhistle that hard), to quote Bad Santa, your soul is dogshit and everything about you is ugly.

Rule 1 - No intolerance, dog whistles, violence or petty behavior

(a). Intolerance will result in a permanent ban. Toxic language including referring to others as animals, subhuman, trash or any similar variation is not allowed.

(b). No dog whistles.

(c). No inciting violence, advocating the destruction of property or encouragement of theft.

(d). No petty behavior. This includes announcing that you have down-voted or reported someone, picking fights, name calling, insulting, bullying or calling out bad grammar.

NYC is tired of people who constantly excuse criminal behavior. The "conservative" you responded to says

>sorry that it bothers you that I don’t honor scumbags who commit gang assault and muggings.

and I agree.
