Hardly. Since when has exercising one's right to protest become "hate"? The fascist right doesn't like opposing views. That's why they decry these players.
thy can spew what ever trash they wish, but once again they are the ones spewing the hate, not trump.
This used to be an American tradition, for the champions of the sports world to visit the White House and be recognized as champions, no matter who the president is. How sad it is that some of these athletes can't even be civil for an hour of their lives. My gosh, how often does one get an opportunity just to visit the White House?
It shouldn't even matter who is in office, and it shouldn't matter what the media thinks, if that means anything. The eventual NBA champions and the Philadelphia Eagles need to bite the bullet and just go. Be recognized. It can't hurt.
I remember when Republicans would cheer the few players who refused to meet with Obama. They sing a different tune now that entire teams don’t feel the need to meet with Trump. I love it.
Donald Trump made the unprecedented decision to cancel the Philadelphia Eagles’ scheduled visit to the White House this week, and LeBron James says fans should not expect the winner of the NBA Finals to make the trip to the nation’s capital, either.
When asked on Tuesday about the Eagles’ trip being cancelled, LeBron felt comfortable making some pretty powerful remarks on behalf of both his Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors. LeBron says neither Cavs nor Warriors will visit White House
Good for them. There is nothing honorable about visiting the Trump Fascist WH!
Trump has been every bit as pro-black as his predecessor. LeBron and the other haters are just typical brainwashed morons.

And rightly so. Cops are more likely to shoot whites than blacks. Getting shot by cops without good reason is a problem for blacks, but it's MORE of a problem for whites. All this activism is based on a lie.
These '*******s' do more charity work, and good for their communities than Trump and everyone associated with him has done in their miserable lives.
They are role models, and heroes to children all over the world, and they live up to that title.
Now, I don't want to sell Trump short. He is also a hero and role model to nazis and other bigots, and he lives up to his title just as well, if not better.
Sounds pretty stupid with what you just said... I'll let the other posters laugh... at your expense...
