..because Americans don't love themselves. If Americans started telling and teaching the truth about how Blacks were /are treated, they couldn't handle it.

What an ass

America loves you. America is a loving country. We have the wrong leadership who is trying to kill us all.

That’s not true. It’s not true at all. Racism just didn’t leave. You are loved ❤️

Huh?

The reason I dislike Lebrain he is a Pompous A hole reason 1

Why does the opinion of a few apply to an entire race? Not all people (regardless of their race) are racist as a matter of fact most of us aren’t. How about publishing that?! Also not all protesters are violent looters, but that sort of protest isn’t sexy enough for national news

The bulk of the GOP are Longtime corrupt malicious & vindictive racists 'even though they have people of Color among their ranks 'Republican Party is Nasty !!

KingJames if America didn’t love u, U wouldn’t be a millionaire for throwing a ball in a hoop! Who do you think pays your grotesque salary? Americans! By paying the overpriced ticket prices to watch you play! It is insulting to hear you speak that way! Hate comes in all colors!

Reverse racism much?

When you lump all non African Americans together with a statement like that, is the same as me saying all African Americans are thugs, and we both know that’s not true.

Who's 'us'?

Most of America does love you, but there are those who put in steel supports one of the most racist presidents and he brought out the racism in Congress that has never gone away. A big step in helping love you more is voting in November all blue. Republicans(most)= racist

'America was built on rape/racism and white supremacy/ lies trickery/genocide ..So LeBron this no surprise..'Cops where always the ones to dish out control and the corrupt law enforcement..'

Ask Biden that

If you stayed at Cleveland We’ll love you better

Has he seen the footage of blacks burning and looting local businesses.? What lack of self awareness. He needs to look to hold his people accountable for high crime rates and fatherless homes. Change starts within the community.

That should calm folks down. Thank goodness every basketball player is an insightful statesman.

I dislike lebron for 100 reasons none of which having to do with the color of his skin.

racism isn't one sided. Just a FYI

because you keep looting and rioting?
