On Saturday afternoon, rapper Wiz Khalifa was attacked by three officers at LAX, because he refused to get off his hoverboard. Wiz documented the situation on both Instagram and Twitter and said, “They love saying stop resisting….All because I wouldn’t ditch the technology everyone will be using in the next 6 months.”
The first video posted on Twitter shows Khalifa surrounded by cops : “This? I didn’t do nothing, anyway,” he says in the video showing a time stamp of 3:55 pm. “What you want to do? Put me in jail because I didn’t listen to what you say? We can have all the conversations you want to, you can end up on TMZ, destined to become as famous as you wanna be.”

Then Wiz Khalifa posted the second video on his Instagram account. In the clip, he is shown on the ground and is surrounded by at least four (4) U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officers ordering him to stop resisting as they handcuff him.
He then responds and says: “I’m not resisting, sir.” Khalifa later captioned the video on Instagram: “3 cops yelled ‘stop resisting.’ Only thing to do is let them know, that I’m not resisting, I’m doin what I want.”
It must be noted that rouge cops typically yell the words “stop resisting” when they know they are being recorded as this is a tactic that is used to justify their actions. #CopTraining101
