On Saturday, October 24, rapper Offset live-streamed his arrest on Instagram, for allegedly "waving guns at people" while driving through a rally of President Donald Trump in Los Angeles, California. Even though Offset's wife, singer and rapper Cardi B was not spotted in the live video, her Instagram stories revealed that she was also somewhere near the rally.

The Instagram live video posted by Offset on Saturday evening shows two police officers, a man and a woman, approach Offset, who is sitting in his automobile. "I'm not doing that, I'm not doing that. Because you've got guns out." "I'm not going to move my hands from my steering wheel," Offset says while denying to come out from the vehicle. "We were told that you guys were waving guns," the female officer says. "You know who I am? Offset from the Migos. They got fans, that's why they're following me," he replies. "That has nothing to do with why we're here. We were told that you guys were waving guns at people," the officer says. "You just watched somebody beat my car up with a flag. What are you talking about?" the rapper replies. "You told me to put my hands up, I'm not doing that... There are 25,000 people on my live. You're going to get sued publicly." The male officer tries to open Offset's car door, and Offset says that he can't do that. Offset is then pulled from the car, and arrested.

On the other hand, Cardi B who was somewhere near the rally, but not in the same vehicle with husband Offset, posted a series of Instagram stories, saying, "Trump supporters are everywhere, I don't like their big a** trucks." In another story, she can be heard saying, "I don't like this sh*t, Look at this, look how they are walking around with fake guns, I don't like this sh*t."

As soon as Offset's live stream came in light, people started reacting to it. One user wrote, "Using your celebrity status doesn’t mean squat when you brandish a gun at a rally when no one was rioting, trespassing or looting...#whocareswhoyouare #entitledcelebrity #LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder." Labeling the police officers as "terrorists" another wrote, "Offset and Cardi were in the middle of a Trump rally and now Offset is arrested for defending himself against those terrorists."

Another surprised Netizen wrote, "And offset said the protestors tried to shatter his window with flags so why are the police not questioning the protestors ? Or shut down the rally ? Like what the fu*k." While another person slammed the police officers and said, "This situation with Offset is nowhere near funny. That is everyday life for black men. Y’all are fucking SAD. That situation is a prime example of white police policing a black man for NO REASON. Because he drove through a damn TRUMP RALLY."

Slamming the Black Trump supporters another wrote, "Offset was arrested after the cops WITNESSED Trump supporters damaging his property. This is why people like 50 cent, Kanye and Ice Cube need to be quiet. You can be a celebrity and a Trump supporter but youre STILL a black man in Trump's America. Your rights dont matter." Comparing the incident with BLM protests, one even said, "They arrested offset cause he apparently disturbed a trump rally but yet yt folks bring guns to BLM and voting rallies."

Posting the video, another one wrote, "Word is Offset got arrested because a Trump supporter claimed he threatened them with a gun, the cops sided with the Trump supporter."
