To be blunt, what muslims do is the -only- thing that reflects islam, but I understand why you have an interest in distancing yourself from some of the things that muslims do (in the same way that I like to distance myself for what other human beings do).
By your own fairy tales though, such incidents do directly reflect on the will of your god, so make your stand on justice there, if you like.
Response: To the contrary, what is done in accordance to the teachings of islam reflects islam. So violent or degrading acts that are not taught in islam does not reflect Allah or islam. Thus if you were truly making a stand for justice, you wouldn't call what is just as unjust.
