Gay Mullah Flees Iran After Marrying Same-Sex Couples
A gay mullah has escaped Iran, after marrying same-sex couples. He now lives in Turkey, which is much more tolerant of homosexuals. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
