The shooting of a black teenager in Ferguson has sparked protesters ever since the incident happened however, the announcement that there will be no indictment over white police officer Darren Wilson has resulted to an even angrier mob and stars shared their view about the recent verdict.
The grand jury has not charged the involved officer back in August and this has disappointed a lot of people including stars such as Katy Perry, Rihanna and LeBron James. The grand jury pressed that they do not see any probable cause for charges against the said officer.
Brown's parents identified as Lesley McSpadden and Michael Brown, Sr., said in a statement: "We are profoundly disappointed that the killer of our child will not face the consequence of his actions." They also addressed the chaos in the area that has erupted hours after the announcement.
They said that they want people to support their campaign ensuring every police officer in the United States wear a body camera in order to fix the system.
Katy Perry tweeted: "Feeling stuck all the way over here in Sydney seeing the news just now... Sending my prayers to Ferguson & praying for an equal America."
Rihanna opted to post a photo about justice as well as LeBron James showing a caricature of Brown and another black teenager shot by a white police officer.
Actress Lena Dunham also shared her thoughts as she tweeted: "All my love is with the family of Michael Brown. I applaud their strength and courage, mourn their loss, pray they see justice and change."
