How to use incitement in a sentence?
When I listen to the rhetoric that was used in the speeches leading up to the insurrection at Capitol Police, I mean there's no other word to describe it -- at least from my perspective -- than' incitement.' And in some degrees, I would go even further and say that it sanctioned that behavior, certain rhetoric that was used by certain individuals that day -- I mean, to hear people after the fact downplay the event knowing what I went through and what hundreds of other officers went through that day -- I've said before it's disgraceful.

We looked at the incitement to violence that was on there.
