That Answer was uncalled for, but the answer is A. Some groups might be punished more or less severely than other groups. :) <3

The correct answer is: A. Some groups might be punished more or less severely than other groups.

If one takes the case of a racial minority, for example, people who belong to these are usually part of the lower classes, which means are eventually less influential than the population of a better socioeconomic condition, for which they become victims of tougher punishments. Racial disparity is found in all crime categories, and wrongfully convicted members of racial minorities constitute around the half of exonerations for example.

But the punishments in terms of years of prison could be considered the tip of the iceberg. Discrimination goes on, for example in employment, when people belonging to racial minorities were convicted, looks for a job is rejected for that reason.
