Pete King

Though it might not be important to Lebron James and the NBA, last night the House of Representatives passed strong bipartisan legislation affirming America’s support of Hong Kong’s democracy activists against China’s brutal repression.

I was a strong cosponsor of the “Protect Hong Kong Act” (H.R. 4270) and the “Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019” (H.R. 3289). It is essential that the United States speak with one voice in supporting democracy and demanding that China comply with the terms of its agreement with Great Britain providing democratic rights to the people of Hong Kong.

It is truly unfortunate that the NBA and its star players are so indifferent to the cause of Hong Kong’s democratic activists and so blind to China’s brutality and oppression. ... See MoreSee Less

NFBC...Fook 'em!

He might be a great basketball player but he is sure as hell an enormous phony when it comes to his concern about “human rights issues”. Not that his support of BLM is bright either.

You know, we're abandoning the Kurds and defending Saudi oil fields. Maybe focus in what matters, Pete?

Lebron is an idiot

Need to make sure they release Space Jam 2 in Hong Kong so the NBA and Lebron James can get paid. After all it’s all about $ and not democracy. LeBron is a fool and anyone listens to his illiterate speech is also a fool

Its all about the $$$$$$$$$$

He is bought and paid for by Nike and China.

Ignorant fool.

All I got to say is God Bless America... We are on the Highway to Hell... Everybody's twisted

Shoshana Hershkowitz, you mean Pete King should focus on what matters to you personally. Hong Kong matters, standing up to China matters. There are many places and many issues our representatives have to focus on, not just your politically biased selective issues.

He is only a high school graduate and bounces a ball for a living

They’re not blind, they don’t want to loose the revenue that is provided to the NBA and certain players brands their relationship with China generates.

If truly interested in China, Must read: Belt and Road, Lebron James should read and then comment where he stands.

What is amazing is that Lebron James and the NBA are treated as if they are the President, and the President can say nothing and some how is immune....

He should have kept his mouth shut. Celebs and pro athletes are jerks that we should tune out. But not Gary Sinise. Great Guy

Thank you for standing publicly supporting Hong Kong’s Democracy activists against China’s Brutal repression 👏🏼👏🏼

It’s all about!$$$$ for James and the other ungrateful spoiled athletes. They should be grateful to God He gave them the opportunity to live a great life style in our wonderful USA!! They should also be eternally joyful to have all the freedoms this country offers and be sympathetic for the people of Hong Kong!! God Bless America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

There are so many NBA Social Justice Warriors for the false national police brutality narrative, but to standup for the Hong Kong democracy demonstrators might cost them some money, so all of a sudden these Social Justice Warriors go silent.

My understanding is that the team owners and executives are afraid of losing billions of $, so they forced all the players to silence on threat of being fired and banned.

$$$

The players don't care because they are self centered and greedy.

They’re not indifferent. They’re blissfully obstinate. They either care only about their money they receive (sneakers, movies in LeBron’s case etc...) or are too ignorant to understand the geopolitical ramifications of their stance. Yes. I’m calling LeBron an idiot. Just because you put a ball in a basket doesn’t make you intelligent. And if you pull the race card out because I’m criticizing LeBron, Adam Silver is just as to culpable.

LeBozo is a clown amongst Thugs....period.

The NBA has more fans in China . Of course that’s where his loyalty is. He has selective outrage over human rights. It’s all about the Benjimans.🏀🏀🏀🏀💲💲💲

How about you worry about four democracy here at home? You have a POTUS who has taken the ‘daily impeachable act’ challenge, and you’re still pining about sports figures. You need to be gone, Pete King.
