Plus, a few good jokes about educated women looking like monkeys on roller skates.

Watch a clip below to see how disappointed Cohen’s character is to learn to organic store doesn’t sell any assault rifles.

“I think we have so much to learn from the animal kingdom. Instead, they are shot and gassed and farmed and eaten, and only humans do this to them! Animals don’t start wars or destroy the planet or create cancers or pollute or over-populate. Humans, by comparison, are a mess. You can also tell so much about a person by their treatment of animals. A woman in a fur-coat might as well carry a sign saying ‘I am an idiot.’ How women — and it’s usually women — can wear fur, whilst knowing how it’s manufactured, is absolutely bewildering to me. The human race is rarely humane.”

—Morrissey, during an interview discussing his views on vegetarianism and animal rights. The former member of The Smiths who sang “Meat Is Murder” has been vegetarian since age 11.
