Prohibition Aplenty
When alcohol was banned in the 1920’s in the United States, the black market soared with demand for stock. For some of the bootleggers in charge of these illegal operations, the law caught up to them in a very big and very public way. In this shot from Detroit in Michigan, authorities are sending a strong message by destroying the alcohol through a window and into the drains of the city. Talk about sending a strong message.

Photographing Death
It’s a rare sight for anybody to capture a picture of a nuclear explosion, as the blast would take around 16 milliseconds to reach the person even if they were hundreds of miles away. The radiation would be an instant way to ensure that the person would be having major health problems almost immediately, or later in life. Nevertheless, this picture exists, and although tragic, it does highlight the power and many layers of nuclear warfare.
