Cassius : "You may wish as you will. We yet have all the Senate behind us, and all the men of quality."
Mark Antony : "And I have an angry mob... that will roast and eat your "men of quality" in the ashes of the Senate House!"
- Rome, Season 2, Episode 1 (excellent show, highly recommend)
When Our Betters speak of an "insurrection" they speak of what they fear. There were probably a million people in the Capitol there for the express purpose of being pissed off at what happened with the election. Our Betters are absolutely terrified that normal people will realize that they easily outnumber them 100:1.
So to them it absolutely is more important than an assassination attempt against a Supreme Court Justice.
That's just wishful thinking. They can see how people are just as we can, so any 'fears of the people' are just a fantasy. They install a senile scumbag as president specifically to mock those people they supposedly fear. Nothing happens...

Nothing has happened yet.
I like to think that there is only so much shit the American people are willing to eat.
I used to think that too. Then people started literally tolerating homosexuals. You and I both know how far it's gone beyond that.
