Seriously? People are supporting this? That's awful. As much as I loathe religion, I totally feel it's wrong for a government to single out one faith and ban their holy book. What's going to happen to Russian Muslims now? Many will feel they have to leave behind their homes and friends and move to another country. Islamaphobes will get a nice boost of confidence that their government supports their hate campaign and could become more actively hateful towards the Muslims who choose to stay.
As much as I'd love to see religion banned in general; shit like this won't help and will just harm people in the end. There are ways of doing these things without making a minority group feel even less comfortable in their own homes.
