'Rollin' stars Limp Bizkit have taken a stand against stage invaders, after guitarist Wes Borland shared a video of him taking out a fan who tried to take a selfie with him on stage. Watch the incident below. 

After The Story So Far frontman Parker Cannon caused controversy for drop-kicking a girl from the stage after she took the time to take a selfie, Borland actually uploaded a video of an incident to Instagram himself - but as a clear warning to fans. 

The difference here being that the Bizkit star seems to be suggesting that he didn't know the fan wanted a selfie, and then he was acting cautiously in the wake of events such as the Paris terror attacks - in which 89 people were killed at an Eagles Of Death Metal gig at the Bataclan

"The moral of the story here is not to bum rush people on stage," wrote Borland. "So many bad things have gone down at shows and if you aren't invited up, we don't know what your intentions are or if you're intoxicated or violent or what... This guy wasn't hurt. I grabbed his shirt and stiff armed him away from my space. Don't do this. You respect our space and we will absolutely respect you." 

He later released a longer statement following a backlash:
