In Folder: AAEC Editorial Cartoons
From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Richard Locher. Two thugs walk away from a crime victim in an alley. The larger of the two men carries a handgun and cash. The smaller man, with "CAT" on his shirt, carries a handgun and a (?) [rolled paper or stick?]. Behind them in the alley, an unconscious (dead?) man lies amid scattered garbage cans and trash. The large thug says to the other man, "Don't worry about it! Cruel and unusual punishment applies to US if we're caught! Not to our victims!" At the right edge of the cartoon is part of a political campaign poster with: "Nov. 1; Markusich; Vote."
circa 1975
