I support people who want to flee their theocratic nation and pursue a secular lifestyle in peace, but cannot support anyone who wants to expand a religion that actively murders people for petty crimes or no crime at all. Ex-muslims get 100% support from me, especially since they may be in danger if they stay in a religious area, but people actively practicing their religion and with no intention of adapting to the lifestyle of a secular nation get none.

I totally agree. I am not supportive of Islam as a religion, but have a lot of compassion for refugees and asylum seekers. I do think it's a serious problem that the left overlooks the major problems of Islam and paints it as racism rather than criticism of a religious and political ideology.
