The core problem is that no matter how much you try to say that certain fringe groups of Christianity are harmful to society (some violent, some simply harmful their members or to society at large) there's always going to be someone bellowing NOT ALL CHRISTIANS and refusing to acknowledge that there are so many sects and movements within Christianity that it'd be impossible to even come up with some kind of solid core doctrine they all could agree on.

The flipside of that is that too much of the Western world assumes that ALL Muslims are extremists who are out to destroy them and their society. And yeah, some are. But people aren't willing to hear that or understand it, so instead of seeing "extremist Muslims" they see "Muslims" and they place that blame on everyone they perceive to fit that label. Meaning that more innocent people suffer (violence, ostracization, discrimination, etc).

Is it right? No. But it's how things work in a society that gets most of it's information from large biased news sources. People only have so much empathy to go around and they are always going to favor "their own groups" versus "other groups" when doling it out, even when "their own group" might not have anything to do with them.

So the movement to keep things like ISIS from being labeled Muslim is the same kind of movement as those who try to say that Westboro Baptist Church aren't Christian.
