Guardsman in DC saves life of same person on separate occasions

Spc. Darrion Rackley of the South Carolina Army National Guard recently saved the life of the same man on two separate occasions while supporting the Guard’s “D.C. Safe and Beautiful” mission.

While celebrating a recent birthday, Rackley, an information technology specialist, and other team members assigned to Headquarters Battery, 1st Battalion, 178th Field Artillery, were distributing food to local individuals experiencing homelessness in the area.


During the assignment, a local bystander alerted the team that a male nearby was experiencing a medical emergency, noting the man was unresponsive.

Rackley arrived first on the scene and identified the situation as a drug overdose. He subsequently administered Narcan and performed CPR, ultimately resulting in the individual’s resuscitation.

This is just cannon fodder for democrats to show what a terrible idea of having troops in D.C. was.  Weren't the troops told to make sure everything they did was equitable?  This soldier couldn't find another race member to rescue?  Another gender?  (of course, he would have to have gotten permission from her to touch her first) To be truly equitable though, he would have to have found another junkie, not a gunshot victim.  A real problem would be if the junkie's supplier was an illegal immigrant, how could he save the other guy and not reveal the illegal?  I think Schumer needs to investigate this and hold the soldier in jail, or if DC won't do that, shut down the government. :bullie smokin:
