Additional Information

This statement from the 1960s references police brutality and how Armed and Dangerous means to not approach the police because they carry weapons and are likely to use them without cause.

Underground Uplift Unlimited (UUU) was an ephemera shop in the East Village run by Randy Wicker. They created and sold some of the most worn protest buttons of the 60s.
