Explanation
In the events presented in the questions, situations of discrimination against different minority communities such as ethnic groups, racial groups, and homosexual groups are exposed. This discriminatory conduct is classified as illegal because the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States established a clause that deals with equal treatment of all people in all states of the country, so treating them in a differential or discriminatory manner is considered illegal.
