After six mexican citizens were killed in El Paso by a gunman, who authorities believe is the author of a racist and anti-government manifesto, the Mexican government says its planning to take legal action against the United States. 

 

Mexican foreign minister Marcelo Ebrard said in a statement that the shooting was an act of terrorism against the Mexican-American community. 

 

Ebrard has also said Mexico could try to extradite the 21-year-old shooter and is investigating who or what company is responsible for selling the assault weapon used in the attack.
