Out of interest, is there a legal right in the US for a citizens arrest of a congressman/woman for breaching the constitution?
I am unfamiliar with constitutional law in this regard.
Has it ever happened before?

You know, I honestly don't have an answer to that. I do know that the government is going to do what it wants. They're the ones with the bigger guns...

What is blowing my mind away is the blatant complacency I am seeing in some of the reactions here...
"Oh, what you are doing is the wrong way to do it...you need to go through the courts to do it..."
"Oh, I don't think this is the right way to do it..."
Heavily paraphrased, btw.
The situation we are in requires *something* to happen.
Without it, nothing will change, other than a steady progression along the path we are already on.
I wish I could join these men. I wish more people shared the sentiment and the dream.

I'd like to point out that the idea behind this march sounds perilously close to letting loose a lynch mob.
Looks like we know whom controls Twitter...........

I think the feds will do anything it takes, and use whatever force is necessary
What's sad is that I am on the other side of the planet and I could not agree more with that statement.
I hope that your Constitutional Republic does not morph into a dictatorship.....because it's starting to look pretty blurry these days.

Thank you for underscoring my sentiment PRECISELY.
Apparently, you don't see this as a situation that REQUIRES drastic measures? Do you genuinely believe that the way things are, we can continue? That we can use "official avenues" to address our grievances? That we can honestly expect our corrupt gov't to change without some form of action?
Thank you for pointing this out.

I'm sorry, so you want people hung from lampposts in Washington DC? Really? Despite the fact that such an action would prove that the USA has finally gone to hell in a handbasket, prompting the biggest financial collapse since Rome discovered that the only thing it had left in its coffers was some mouse droppings and an IOU from Stilicho? Seriously?
So who would be the first person hung? Please tell me that it would be John 'Crying Man' Boehner, the idiot who is the biggest disgrace to the position of Speaker of the House since the dawn of the Republic?
