Because what kicked off the leader making everyone kill themselves was a congressmen going there with the national guard requesting access...

Not the op but I'd assume the cruelty without repercussions leading to an actual response by the oppressed that will be deemed an "uprising" resulting in a "justification" to call in the army or something on whoever they want to blame.
