HR people: firing someone at work!

I have some questions about how to go about this. I don't want to post the situation publicly for obvious reasons. Is there anyone here in HR who I can send a FM to about the situation for your feedback? Many thanks!

I'm not in HR, but my good friend is. She says if it's a woman, minority, someone over 45, etc...they give a severence and "lay off" not fire.

She works for one of the big accounting firms, I'm sure that's harder for small businesses, with severence and paying unemployment.

This sounds SOOOOOO wrong on so many levels. So basically if you are a white male you are totally screwed.
