Black Lives Matter as a saying is not a symbol of hate, but there are people with BLM that are.
Black Lives Matter is a saying that can be great, but Black Lives Matter is also an organization with things that are more of hate and not good for America.

“Why is the president calling Black Lives Matter a symbol of hate?” Karl asked.
“Well, what the president was noting, is that, that symbol, when you look at some of the things Black Lives Matter has chanted, like ‘pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon,’ that’s not an acceptable thing to paint on our streets,” responded the press secretary.
“So, look, he agrees that all black lives matter, including that of David Dorn and Patrick Underwood, two officers whose lives were tragically taken amid these riots,” she continued. “All black lives do matter, he agrees with that sentiment, but what he doesn’t agree with is an organization that chants ‘pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon’ about our police officers, our valiant heroes who out on the streets protecting us each and every day.”
Protests across the country have rallied around the “phrase” “black lives matter,” Karl contended. “And the president is here calling it a symbol of hate?”
“He’s talking about the organization,” McEnany responded. “I would note to you that the Greater New York BLM president has said, ‘If this country doesn’t give us what we want then we will burn down the system and … I could be speaking literally.'”

“He’s not talking about the organization in his tweet, he’s talking about the words,” Karl claimed.
“What’s the name of the organization, again?” McEnany responded.
“Black Lives Matter,” the ABC reporter answered.
“There ya go, you just answered my question,” the press secretary said before moving on to another reporter.

CNN in their fact checking even confirmed this.

this is why I asked "did anyone in BLM ever come out condoning that chant."Quote:
Facts First: The words "pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon" were chanted at a protest march held by a Black Lives Matter group in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 2015. That group, however, was an independent entity not affiliated with the national Black Lives Matter organization. And we could find no evidence the chant has been used by the national organization, by any Black Lives Matter groups in the New York City area, or by Black Lives Matter activists anywhere outside Minnesota -- nor even by the St. Paul group on any subsequent occasion.
this was still a group of BLM chanting this, that shouldn't be acceptable.
it was also someone with BLM that said, ‘If this country doesn’t give us what we want then we will burn down the system". that also can not be acceptable.
I wasn't even aware that there was a "black anthem".

shouldn't people across America be more united, want people to be united, and not want people to be segregated.Quote:
The NFL plans to have the song "Lift Every Voice and Sing" -- known as the Black national anthem -- performed live or played before every game in Week 1 of the NFL season, a source familiar with the league's discussions told CNN on Thursday.
if someone white said painting "Black Lives Matter" on the court is "not a good idea" they could quickly be called racist.

“There's a problem with when you start to go down this road of freedom of expression, freedom of speech, and how much social space is allowed for those who don't support in that same space,” he said when the topic was brought up.
“And that's where I wonder where this is going to go in terms of identity politics,” Wiley added. “We know what identity politics does — it divides, and it polarizes. No matter how you want to look at it, that's just the effect of it — no matter h
