That's right, woodchuck-chuckers -- it's Groundhog Day!

DMX was arrested for the -- oh heck, we lost count how many-ith time -- busted in Miami for trying to buy cocaine and marijuana.

According to the Miami-Dade Police Department, DMX was busted as part of an undercover narcotics investigation. He approached an undercover Miami-Dade Police narcotics detective and requested to purchase "30 Powder & 15 Weed" -- street slang for cocaine and marijuana. X handed over $45 -- and was arrested.

X, real name Earl Simmons, was popped back on June 23 for driving without a valid driver's license ... and on May 9 on seven misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty and four felony drug possession charges ... and May 7 on charges of racing on a highway, reckless driving, two counts of endangerment, three counts of criminal speed and driving on a suspended license.

31. DMX is bipolar--too bad he is not in recovery. He needs mental health help. Many people who have mental illnesses use illegal drugs, most have the comorbidity of Axis 1 criteria for polysubstance abuse. Perhaps this time the judge could sentence him to an intensive outpatient treatment program for treatment and management of his bipolar disorder and polysubstance abuse, and maybe even trauma recovery. Wasn't his childhood pretty violent. Maybe he also has am additional comorbidity of boarderline personality disorder.

44. BRAVO! MIMI!!! SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE ON TO AN IDEA THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN EVIDENT AFTER A SECOND ARREST OF "ANY" KIND OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE! ANY JUDGE IN HIS/HER RIGHT MIND WOULD HAVE FORCED TREATMENT, AND IF HE SAID NO, THEN PAY THE CONSEQUENCES AND SADLY GO TO JAIL! AND, AS A RECOVERING ADDICT, YOU CANNOT DEFINE 'ADDICTION' BY SKIN COLOR! I MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE THE STORY STRAIGHT HERE, BUT IT SOUNDS AS IF WITH THE MANY, MANY ARRESTS INVOLVING DRUGS NEVER INVOLVED ANY KIND OF REHAB TREATMENT. DMX IS A HUGE TALENT TO THE SHOBIZ INDUSTRY, AND IT SADDENS ME A GREAT DEAL! IF THE HEADLINE HADN'T READ 'DMA ARRESTED....' , I WOULD'VE NEVER KNOWN WHO HE WAS IN THAT MUGSHOT! SOMEONE SAID THEY'D SEEN HIM IN ONE OF HIS MOVIES AND HE WAS SO HANDSOME, AND YES, I TOO REMEMBER A MOVIE OR TWO WHERE HE WAS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS AND ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC IN IT!!! THERE IS HOPE FOR HIM HOWEVER, I DO BELIEVE! NEVER GIVE UP ON THE POWER OF GOD!!!

45. ALSO......I FORGOT! JAIL IS NOT THE ANSWER WITHOUT TREATMENT!! THAT IS, UNLESS HE REFUSES TREATMENT AND WOULD WANT A JAIL SENTENCE.
