According to the Oxford Dictionary, which is definitive IMHO:

Injustice:
"1.1 [count noun] An unjust act or occurrence."
So, what does "unjust" mean? Is an act only REALLY "unjust" if it's comparable to an innocent guy who's on death row for 30 years, etc.? Let's look at usage. The Oxford Dictionary also provides the following example of correct usage:
"His sacking was an injustice."
Well, look at that! At least according to Oxford, the word certainly can apply to Lindsey's situation.

I think one of the reasons these men were driven to despair was the fact that so many people were telling them they had no right to be unhappy.
