They marched to the courthouse in El Paso, Texas. Some said the protest was against inhumane living conditions. Most said it was due to recent actions regarding Title 42. However, the way they protested Title 42 is the definition of cringe. They pretended to be crucified.
Title 42 gives the government the freedom to limit migration, and immigration, to stop the spread of disease. It was initially established after WWII.
