Hunted in Russia --- Homophobia in Russia (NSFW)

Hunted in Russia explores the terror that gay people in Russia are calling the "hunting season". This shocking documentary offers unique access to vigilante groups that track down, beat up and humiliate gay men and women. It depicts a country troubled by disturbing homophobic violence and intimidation -- a country in which gay people are treated like animals and hunted for sport.

It disgust me how so many here on DU who claim to be "Liberals" support Putin's actions in Ukraine & defend him like they do other dictators & evil regimes around the world simply because they are anti-American.

The leader in the video is Maxim Martsinkovich, who has been placed on wanted list in Russia since last December.
He fled first to Cuba, and now is hiding in Ukraine.
