Yeah, that's exactly who that offends....

Rights group files complaint against 'Borat' in Germany:

A human rights group campaigning for gypsies has filed a complaint against British comic Sacha Baron Cohen over his "Borat" film featuring a spoof Kazakh journalist who calls himself a former "gypsy catcher," German prosecutors said.

The state prosecutor's office in the northern city of Hamburg said the European Center for Antiziganism Research had brought the complaint accusing Cohen of slander, inciting violence against the Sinti and Roma gypsy groups and violating Germany's anti-discrimination law.

"Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" premiered last week in London and is due to hit German cinemas Thursday.

Quick! Somebody tell Kazakhstan and Red State America to back down...this guy's only slamming the freaking gypsies.

(Speaking of which, I've heard rumours that I can't find any links to sources of that state the movie was almost entirely staged, and that the producers claimed a lot more was off-the-cuff than actually was. Anybody know anything about this?)
