The first video show 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.”

...

Khalifa went to Twitter regarding the incident, mentioning in multiple tweets that hoverboards were the way of the future.

A couple idiots were riding a pair of these through WalMart this morning. VERY inconsiderate. Like rolling through the store on roller skates.

I would have taser the guy just for the hell of it (notice I didn’t call for lethal force)

I danced nimbly out of their way. For an old fat guy, I’m still fairly agile.

There cannot be a law against this device. This was just jackass cops. And that “stop resisting,,, stop resisting” that they keep repeating.
Its a scam simply designed to make audiotape sound good.
They yell it no matter what the person is doing.

Have to agree with that.

Looks like the ‘step 1’ in ‘how to be one of the people in walmart who has to ride a scooter’.

Probably more likely an ordinance than a law.

Otherwise people would be moving through the concourse crowds riding bicycles, riding skateboards and scooting on inline skates.

You or I would never do it — but some people only seem to be deterred by the establishment of rules and the enforcement of those rules.

I knew that. When I first saw his pic, I thought “I’d have arrested him at least for looking like a jackass” but really....should we go there? Should we allow our police, our PUBLIC SERVANTS to manipulate this situation and arrest people for looking like jackasses???? The ONLY reason that three cops on one man who has his hands handcuffed behind his back and is on or nearly on the floor, to be repeatedly yelling “STOP RESISTING” is to make their report look good and to cover their lying butts.

I was just at lax last week and saw several people on these with no issue. I believe there is more to this story.

Speaking of TMZ, wasn’t he on there last week smoking a dube in his limo and then riding one of these ridiculous things?

Did not see that, but sounds about right.

I hope for his sake he is getting paid by Segway Corp for endorsing their product.

That’s a Segway product? Is it $4,500?

Laziness is a Human RIGHT!! It’s in the Constitution somewhere, I would look it up and show you, but I need to take a nap first.
