Those are just two different ways of judging people by their ethnicity instead of by their individual actions.
My idea would be something like: Do whatever you want as long as you follow the law. When you break the law, go to jail.
Except that in this case the police and social workers weren’t willing to enforce the law for fear of being called “racist”. More generally, the law is only as strong as the will and ability of people to enforce it.
