Given that Congressmen and Senators generally cannot be arrested, per the Constitution, why did they need to ask for permission from people they are basically in charge of (DC authorities)?

I was just going to post that. They are privileged from arrest when going to and from Congress, so they could bring the arms in themselves and nobody has the authority to stop them.
