A gunman opened fire at an El Paso, Texas Walmart on Saturday morning. The gunman has been detained and charged with capital murder. The incident is being investigated as an act of domestic terrorism.

"We consider this an act of terrorism against the Mexican-American community and the Mexicans living in the United States," said Marcelo Ebrard, Mexico's foreign secretary.

The gunman, in a document he wrote detailing his reasons for committing the massacre, decried immigration and a "Hispanic invasion" of Texas. He is from Allen, which is located in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and he drove more than 600 miles to El Paso specifically to commit this crime.

"In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, and white supremacy," President Donald Trump said Monday in a speech. "These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate has no place in America. Hatred warps the mind, ravages the heart and devours the soul."
