The first result is an article explaining how HFT can't front run [1].
How about instead of making vague arguments about how HFT does front running, provide a specific example of how HFT actually does front running as you claim.
And no, one anecdote is not enough. You have to prove that there is a systemic fault in the way the HFT trades in the market that allow them to operate illegally at scale without any repercussions. To find one HFT firm guilty of front running and then claim that they all do would be tantamount to saying all hedge fund managers cook their books just because Bernie Madoff did. I'm sure you can see the absurdity of that accusation.
