Russia Compares Its Homophobia to U.K. 'Ginger' Hate.

[William769]

Officials with the Russian embassy in London are none too pleased about a recent documentary on Britain's Channel 4 that exposed violent antigay vigilante groups operating with near impunity in several major Russian cities.

In response, the embassy issued a statement blasting the documentary as "hate propaganda" and arguing that "one could have easily whipped up such 'documentary' about a hunting season on redheads in the UK saying that 'ginger' people face unmotivated verbal and physical abuse on a daily basis," according to The Telegraph. The embassy's statement made no mention of the U.K.'s arguably most famous redhead, Prince Harry.
