I don't get involved in protest but I am not against a peacefull protest. That protest was not peaceful. The people there who were peaceful, if they got locked up, they should get out. They obviously did not hunt down and go after everyone their that day.
Do me a favor, go to the Capitol, smash some windows, spray some cops with bear mace on your way in and Chase some congressmen around while threatening them while carrying zip ties. Report back to me on how that works out for you.
