Photography contest - injustice

Please read the CONTEST GUIDELINES before participating in this contest.

injustice
Contest Goal:
For this contest convey what might be seen as injustice. It can be a demonstration or workers on strike, homeless people, war scenes, poverty, sickness, a laboratory where animal testing is carried out, a battery hen, a pig kept in a stall, unwanted dogs in a pound, a mortgagee sale etc. Show us something that doesn't seem fair or right either to you or to the subjects in your shot. It must be created or caused by man rather than nature so no devastation scenes due to weather like storms, floods, earthquakes and the like.

Contest comments:

itsmymoment: Some very powerful and telling images here! Hats-off to all of you! (2 years and 250 days ago)
kyricom: I’ll apologize now to all my friends I’m about to irritate. There have been a lot of nice shots posted to this contest, but very many of them don’t have anything to do with “injustice.” “Justice” (and injustice) are concepts of law. For example, throwing someone in prison without a trial would be unjust. The law says they get a trial. Homeless people or animals in cages may be sad, and even “unfair,” but it is not unjust. But, given the description, I guess this contest should be titled “Unfairness” instead of injustice. Then all these nice shots would be on theme. (2 years and 249 days ago)
mellanieb: I agree kyricom ... and there are some beautiful entries in this contest. (2 years and 249 days ago)
Gubbles: Fair enough kyricom. In hindsight I should have chosen a more appropriate contest title. I knew I should have gone to law school (2 years and 248 days ago)
