I'm an immigrant who went through the years of red tape, security checks and a few thousand dollars, and I'm perfectly fine with accepting refugees, so I guess that cancels out your buddies' arguments.
And as has been pointed out, "refugee" does not equal "immigrant". If I didn't get residency here, while it would've been personally terrible, I still would've had a perfectly acceptable life to go back to. Refugees obviously don't.
