Trump has implored people to say or do, whatever is on their mind, because he does it. There is a direct correlation between his divisive campaign and the police shootings, racist rants and dialogue, and violent rallies he overseen.
I think you will find the real correlation lies with the lack of leadership from the current president in not speaking out strongly against the "peaceful protests" that have cost cities their vitality and safety and continually inviting the agitators to the W.H. which further emboldened them in their rioting acts and resulted in more police and citizens being endangered.

Sporting teams are overpaid entertainers and private citizens. They can speak their minds but they should at least be mindful of the flag veterans have died defending. People can then elect to boycott them and their million dollar salaries and endorsements.

Police and soldiers however don't get to speak their minds and have to standby silently when they are insulted.
