Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau paid tribute to the Capital Gazette victims on Twitter last night after a lone gunman opened fire in Annapolis, Maryland, killing at least five people and injuring several others.

Following the shooting, authorities identified the five deceased victims as Wendy Winters, Robert Hiaasen, John McNamara, Rebecca Smith and Gerald Fischman. They were all employees at Capital Gazette newspaper.

“Journalists tell the stories of our communities, protect democracy, & often put their lives on the line just to do their jobs. Today’s attack in Annapolis is devastating. Our hearts go out to all the victims & their families,” Trudeau tweeted on Thursday evening.

The United State of America Republican Party's government is not.

6. The republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief really whimped out on this one

Americans are used to the republican misleader Dirty Donny whimping out, but this whimp-out was spectacularly weak and cowardly.

9. THIS!!!

I was just about to post the same. The fuckhead in the Oval office doesn't give a shit...he probably smiled and laughed when he heard the news.

4. I'm sure that you all read the tweet from the President of the US, right.

Thank you, PM Justin Trudeau, for taking up the slack left by the resident of our White House. You are what a real leader is and looks like. Your caring is appreciated by many Americans.

5. Now that's how a national leader should respond to a tragedy.

Unlike someone we all know and despise.

8. He has intellect and a soul. K&R

Both qualities are absent in the White House.
