Since when did the word confrontational mean violent?

I think what Waters said was stupid, but claiming it's inciting violence makes no sense. Confrontational does not mean violent.

Well, considering how many of Waters' detractors think that confronting the police (or similar authority figure) merits a summary execution, one can understand the confusion.

Every standard that is set, including the very Constitutional standards, are interpreted or ignored out of relevance, until needed to use against those the establishment wishes to boot out. There is no equity. The double-standard is right there in front of all our faces.

Absolutely. Both sides show their double-standard with consistency.

Trump was acquitted during impeachment for his inflammatory rhetoric in a political vote along party lines.

Waters was let off from censure in a political vote along party lines.

Both acted against their oaths of office. Both should have been held accountable. However, the reality is that each party protects its own, and neither stands upon any real principles.

Agreed in principle, but one key difference is that Waters' inflammatory rhetoric didn't result in a body count.
