ezs commentary: This. is. illegal. Or it would be, given Russia's byzantine code of "laws". Please e-mail Russia's consulate and express your outrage. It might not seem like a lot, but every bit helps.
PS: I just sent a letter to President Vladimir Putin. The tone was respectful, but VERY firm. No matter where in the world you are, you can do likewise!
