I bet most of them will do fine in Missoula. By Montana standards, Missoula is a very ethnically, racially, and culturally diverse and tolerate community. Case in point, consider the Hmong community in Missoula. Starting in 1975-76, many of them were resettled in Missoula from the refugee camps in Laos after the US withdrew from the war in Vietnam. Today, they seem to be doing very well in Missoula and I believe most folks consider them to be an asset to the community.

I worry more about the 'refugees' from Texas, Illinois, Michigan, California, Ohio, New York, Florida, Georgia, etc., etc. fitting in here in Montana... grin


With all due respect, you're delusional if think un vetted Syrian muslims are comparable to the Hmong refugees. How many Hmong have shot/blew up other ethnic/religious groups in the last 40 years because they didn't agree with their religious beliefs?
