People should be able to come to the nations capital to express their views. That is a constitutional right that must be respected. It should be possible, however, to conduct days of events and planning peacefully- without threats of shutting the city down blah, blah.
The rights of voicing your views in an orderly fassion in the nation's capital should go hand in hand. Lately it seems like everyone threatens the city in this manner when staging a protest about something. Little do the protesters realize is that most of the people who work in the city are federal workers- they will get paid anyway
