There’s some wordsmithing going on there as well. “subject to more crime”. Think about that statement for a moment. It sounds as if the crime is placed upon them. A more accurate phrase might have been “Minority communities typically commit more crime”.

I would not put it on the “minorities” either. Wherever the family is destroyed, crime and anarchy goes up—and the radical-left Dems are all about making sure that the family is in disarray in what they in their racism term “minority” neighborhoods.

This passive voice is just the manifestation of the ongoing refusal to place the blame where it squarely belongs.

To do so denies the victimhood of “minorities, and subsequently destroys the concept that the left is committed to helping those victims.

Yep, victims -- always victims -- even of their own actions or inactions.

“Subject to more crime”...”commit more crime”. Actually, I think both are true but Obama seems to be blaming the police for the additional crime.
