Sam Harris, of the Harlem Globetrotters, offers a powerful defence of liberal morality:

When I search my heart, I discover that I want to keep the barbarians beyond the city walls as much as my conservative neighbors do, and I recognize that sacrifices of my own freedom may be warranted for this purpose.

Which are funnier, monkeys or weasels?

I have a follow up question.
