If supporters hear that he didn't just flee, but instead was carried away, they may continue the fight in the hopes that he can return. This is directly supported by what I heard on CNN a while ago. (i.e., a supporter saying "if he didn't go voluntarily, then he'll be back!") Plus, it makes us the bad guys to a big crowd of people with Aristide's guns.
