Why did Shays' Rebellion frighten many Americans?
Shays' Rebellion frightened many Americans because it was just that, an armed rebellion against a fledgling Federal Government. The rebellion, which directly challenged the authority of a Federal Government that was still predominantly weak (see "Articles of Confederation"), demanded rapid action from the President, at the time George Washington. Washington lead several thousand troops directly into the area, silencing any idea of rebellion and maintaining the legitimacy of the government, as well as demonstrating to Americans that rebellion against "The Peoples's Government" was not acceptable. In short though, Americans were watching the government deploying soldiers domestically to quell rebellion purported by other Americans. This was frightening, watching a rebellion being put down within our own nation. In the end, Washington pardoned the leaders of the rebellion, and everything ultimately turned out okay.
What did Shay's Rebellion show?
Shays' Rebellion in 1786-1787 showed different things to different observers at the time -- and even now. At that time, an observer the likes of Thomas Jefferson was unaffected: he seemed to think that it represented an appropriate kind independence-mindedness among free peoples. For others, it demonstrated the need for making stronger powers available to the federal government, which is precisely what was enacted through the Constitution of the United States in the same period.
