How about when minorities protested fo the Civil Rights Act? Were they "hating America"?
When Rush Limbaugh said he would leave the country if we passed the Affordable Care Act did that mean he hated America?
When Donald Trump campaigned on the fact that America was messed up and he was the only one that could fix it did that mean he hated America?
I don't think you really understand what it means to love America. All you love is "Republican America" and that is not the whole country.
None of those people protested during the National Anthem, which is a time to show your love for the country. By persisting to "protest" during this time, they can say they are not denigrating the military and the country all they want, but their actions speak louder. They can protest at any other time, before or after, but they insist on doing it during the playing of the anthem. Many people see it for what it is, a slap at our nation. Simple as that.
