Colin Kaepernick
"The white supremacist institution of policing that stole Breonna Taylor's life from us must be abolished for the safety and well being of our people," former San Francisco quarterback Kaepernick tweeted along with an #AbolishThePolice hashtag.
LeBron James
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James sent a series of tweets to voice his frustration and said "the most disrespected person on earth is the Black woman."
"I've been lost for words today! I'm devastated, hurt, sad, mad! We want Justice for Breonna yet justice was met for her neighbors apartment walls and not her beautiful life," James wrote on Twitter.
"Was I surprised at the verdict. Absolutely not but damnit I was & still am hurt and heavy hearted! I send my love to Breonna mother, family and friends! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry!!"
Germany
90 per cent expats in Germany perceive the overall natural environment positively, while 86 per cent expressed satisfaction with the availability of environment friendly goods and services.
Lewis Hamilton
Six times Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton, who is racing in Russia this weekend and wore a black T-shirt at the previous race in Italy with the words 'Arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor' on the front, also spoke out.
"I'm so sad but not surprised at this outcome," the Briton, named on Wednesday on the 2020 'Time 100' list of the world's most influential people, told his 20 million followers on Instagram.
"Police continue to get away with murder every single day and it needs to stop! She was innocent and did not deserve to be shot and killed. Where is the justice, this clearly isn't it," he added.
"It hurts to know somebody was killed and nobody was held accountable."
Steve Kerr
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, speaking after his team's first workout since March, said it was "demoralizing" to learn about the news.
"It's just so demoralizing. It's so discouraging," said Kerr. "I just keep thinking about the generation of American kids, of any color. Is this the world they will live in?
"There's just so much violence, and it's demoralizing when we can't be accountable or hold anyone to account for it."
