She like Stone are white, have money and power and can make bail. But minorities, even accused of shoplifting, or pot possession are far more likely to be treated more severely than a white person charged with a similar crime.
Same thing here with Aborigines.
Indigenous people make up 3% of our population, but 28% of our prison population. And no, I do not accept the argument that as a group they are more criminally inclined. I think it is far more likely that some of our police are knuckle dragging racist pricks.
Um, some sure. But it is more along the lines globally that light skinned humans, are still stuck on the European colonialism.
