The words "turned violent" in news reports are interesting because they always refer to a response to violent action rather than the actual inciting violent action.

Strikes "turn violent" when the workers respond to somebody trying to run them over.

Protests "turn violent" when the protesters respond to cops teargassing and beating them.
