Mexico's government and media condemned as an act of "terrorism against Mexicans" the 3 August massacre in the US border city of El Paso, Texas, in which at least seven Mexican nationals were among the 20 people killed.
In editorials and commentaries, several leading Mexican media outlets and pundits squarely blamed US President Donald Trump's incendiary rhetoric against undocumented migrants and in particular Mexicans. They said his language played a part in encouraging the anti-immigrant feelings that reportedly motivated the suspect in the El Paso attack.
Major Mexican dailies widely reflected the Mexican government position, expressed in a tweet that said: "We condemn this act of terrorism against the Mexican-US community and nationals from Mexico in the USA."

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel PO3 (Join to see) @ CPT Jack Durish LTC (Join to see) SFC James Shanks SGT Tony Lee Hamilton SGT (Join to see) SPC Michael Oles SR Ok, point taken. Let's look at the other side of the coin also. What about all the illegals here who have murdered U.S. citizens and law enforcement officers? What about the Americans who have traveled to Mexico to visit family, shop, or vacation, and have been murdered in Mexico? What does the Mexican media and Mexican government have to say about that?

Although it's not in any way a competition, please provide comparative numbers on that SGT Witoszczak. I think if you did you'd be very disappointed in what you would find.

COL John McClellan - Comparative numbers? The El Paso shooter murdered 7 Mexican Nationals, are you asking me to show how many illegals have murdered U.S. citizens and U.S. police officers compared to that?

Prosecutors believe the MS-13 members—many of whom are illegal aliens—murdered Rivas because he was thought to be cooperating with law enforcement.
One of the six suspects, a 19-year-old Salvadorean national named Henri Salvador Gutierrez, had evaded deportation the month before the murder.

And we care what the Mexican government thinks why?
Let them initiate a lawsuit, we opened that door for them..so its theirs to walk though,,, but actions have consequences. And reality is, this was not a state sponsored act, so a law suit blaming the US government is not likely to prevail in any case.
But the second they file the lawsuit, we should recall all debt owed immediately. Stop all economic aid immediately. Place Mexico on the State Department do not travel list immediately. Transport all Mexican national illegal aliens to the border immediately. Inform Mexico, we will hold them responsible if their citizens reenter the country illegally. Enforce all current border laws to the maximum extent possible immediately, with appropriate force as needed to enforce and defend the border from invaders.

More important to me than what our neighboring government says and thinks, is what our own government and leader thinks and says and does, about this escalating crisis!
