Breitbart ^ | 2/9/2016 | Daniel Nussbaum

Rapper DMX, who once rapped that he "hate[s] cops" and sang about murdering them, was revived by police officers in New York on Monday after falling unconscious due to a suspected drug overdose.

According to TMZ, DMX, real name Earl Simmons, was found unconscious in a parking lot at a Ramada Inn in Yonkers, New York, Monday evening. The rapper reportedly had no pulse and was not breathing, and police immediately began administering CPR.

The rapper reportedly began breathing again after about a minute of CPR. When a witness told police on scene that DMX had ingested an unidentified powder prior to collapsing, they gave him the drug overdose antidote Narcan. The rapper reportedly became semi-conscious and was taken to a hospital for further treatment.

Yeah but did they do racist type CPR? Did they do the full CPR that white people receive?

ROFL!

unfortunately, he was decent in a few movies he was in (action nonsense but still fun)

I wont see him in the future. but most white kids would still.

cause they’re self genocidal idiots.

ironically enough, 50 cent is a good actor even in serious roles and was a big Bush supporter, when he wasn’t involved in domestic disputes!

He probably still hates cops. And I guarantee Beyonce won't do a song about this.

The rapper Common has a main part in the series “Hell on Wheels” and has done a pretty good job.

Some of these guys do have some acting talent, they have to because rap isn’t singing, it’s acting.

a coupe of poor schmos endorsed trump, and while he is not my first pick, it was brave of them. boy did they get whacked!!

another rapper called out against abortion and he got double whacked!!

not exactly a conservative bastion lol .

I know you were expressing humor but just in case you had not heard; The Red Cross said a few years ago that mouth to mouth respiration has little additional benefit to life saving. Chest compressions are sufficient.

So if I ever need to provide CPR I intend to skip the mouth to mouth even if I have a partner.

I figure I will save my energy for the chest compressions and avoid the possibility of disease transmission or possible patient regurgitation in to my mouth (my brother who was an EMT says it is fairly common during CPR).

Maybe Sheriff Arpaio and Lawman Seagal put DMX on the better path.
