The president didn't give a blanket statement of bigotry towards any religion. He did, however, acknowledge, unlike our former president, acknowledge radical Islamic terrorism. Unfortunately, Syria has been compromised. He doesn't hate all Muslims, he just wants to protect America from the Muslims that believe in certain ideas in Islam, the ones that allow terrorism..
Also, when he first proposed this idea, it was shortly after the Paris shooting, which left 100+ dead and 300+ injured. I really don't think it's unreasonable to say that maybe we should hold off on freely accepting them in to our country until things simmer down for a bit. Bombings and shooting happen almost on the daily in Europe the Middle East..
