Once there was a young monkey named Alex, who lived in a rough neighborhood. Growing up, Alex had always felt like an outsider and struggled to find a sense of belonging. This all changed when he met a group of monkeys from his neighborhood who had formed a gang. They welcomed him with open arms and he finally felt like he had a place where he belonged.
Despite not committing any crime, Alex was falsely accused of organized crime by the police, who had mistaken him as part of the group. Despite his protests of innocence and lack of evidence, he was still sentenced to life in prison.
In prison, Alex was isolated and alone. He was often targeted by rivaling gangs and had to defend himself, which led to more charges and longer sentence. He sometimes sees his friends from childhood but they were not the same, they were broken and beaten by the reality of prison. They don't have fun anymore, they are just trying to survive.
Alex knows that he will die in his cold cell, alone and far away from his home, his family and the life he once had. He had no way to prove his innocence and his voice was not heard.
The justice system is not perfect, and innocent people can be falsely accused and punished. It is important to question authority and to fight for justice, even if it seems like an uphill battle.
:) Looked like this little ceramic cutie was in jail- he was on a shelf in the shop at the Huntsville Botanical Gardens.
"Islam, Christianity and Judaism are patriarchal, monotheistic religions and are bound by one thing – their contempt of women! When confronted with the issue of women’s plight in Muslim countries, Muslim apologists insist that their religion has been misunderstood and that Islam actually grants women certain rights. They blame tradition and tribal societies for the low status and oppression of women. Since Islam exerts absolute power over every aspect of Muslim society, from diet to relations between the sexes, why has it failed in fourteen centuries of its existence, to eradicate injustices against half of its adherents? Turkey’s women are the most liberated in the Muslim world. This was achieved not through Islamic reformation but through secularisation established by the founder of the modern Turkish republic Kemal Ataturk. Kemal was the product of secular education and had always admired Western culture. He pursued a program of westernisation that affected all aspects of Turkish life – women were granted the vote and veiling was prohibited. If the Turkish system were to collapse and replaced by an Islamic theocracy we can be certain that women’s progress will be reversed and women will be at the mercy of the mullahs. In countries where there has been a raise in fundamentalism and reversal to strict religious law such as Pakistan, Sudan and Afghanistan women are targeted with vengeance and brutality..."

Bearing in mind the struggle the Poles had with the Germans during WW2, I thought it appropriate that a view from the outside makes it look like a prison.
Wikipedia says:
"The uprising was timed to coincide with the Soviet Union's Red Army approaching the eastern suburbs of the city and the retreat of German forces. However, the Soviet advance stopped short, enabling the Germans to regroup and demolish the city while defeating the Polish resistance, which fought for 63 days with little outside support. The uprising was the largest single military effort taken by any European resistance movement during WW2"
He was being a little bugger while we were trying to do some things, so he got locked in for a “Gizmo time-out” until we finished moving stuff around

An image taken to illustrate being ‘behind bars’ while under arrest.
The image was shot in the holding area of one of our custody suites. Contrary to popular belief, UK police cells rarely have bars.

Memories
Today I sorted old photo compact disks ... I found these holiday pictures ... 10 years ago we visit San Francisco.
With some music and a coffee I did a little time warp...
see the monochrome series.
Erinnerungen
Heute habe ich alte Foto-Cd`s sortiert und dabei diese Urlaubsbilder gefunden. Vor 10 Jahren waren wir in San Francisco.
Musik an, Kaffee...und dann habe ich eine kleine Zeitreise gemacht, hier ist die Schwarz-weiß-Serie.
Even when locked away, Knock the madman will call out for his master. And soon, the plague will spread, and you'll wish you had listened...

I must admit the sight of this magnificent creature chained behind bars in the dark was very sad. And believe me, its eyes spoke. It sucks to be a sacred animal in India!

Alphonse "Scarface" Capone's Cell #181. Prisoner #85. This was his small house inside the big house. Alcatraz Island, San Francisco Bay.
Walked by a jewelry store on Götgatan this evening, just before closing.
The owner was taking out the gold and jewelry from the windows, and replaced the tray in one of the lockers with his dog.
She did not mind, not at all, but when I took this snap, she looked very pitiful and people stopped on the sidewalk, uttering their "Awwww:s" and "Ooooh:s".
Probably a trick that pays off.
This vintage VHS release of "Condemned to Hell" (1984) carries the Korean title "City of Women" and promises heavy dollops of B-movie exploitation action of all kinds. Extremely rare tape from the obscure-film-friendly label D&S.

They’re our closest genetic relatives, with DNA over 98 per cent the same as ours.
We’ve had them to test our vaccines...
We’ve sent them to space...
We’ve kept them as pets for our own happiness...
#Chimpanzees can learn from those around them in ways many other animals can’t - and when they’re captive they become even more human-like, sometimes with tragic results.
