As World Reacts to 'Love Wins,' ISIS Punishes Gay Men in Gruesome Way
June 27, 2015
Hundreds of people reportedly gathered to watch the executions.
As the world reacted — many in celebration — to the Supreme Court's ruling on same-sex marriage in the United States, ISIS reportedly threw several gay men off the roof of a high rise building in Syria.
According to the Daily Mirror, hundreds of people gathered to watch the execution. In a video uploaded by the supposed murderers, the men are flung from a five-story building.
Video and photos of the supposed executions circulated on Twitter with the hashtag "#LoveWins," which was used across the world on social media in response to Friday's historic decision in which the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in the United States.

The video circulated on Twitter of the executions has been removed from YouTube due to its content.
Earlier in June, ISIS militants released photos that showed blindfolded men, allegedly gay, being thrown off rooftops headfirst.
