The simple answer is that the Revolutionaries wanted change and the existing French government under King Louis XVI desired to maintain the status quo. At some point one side or the other was going knuckle under, yell uncle or call it quits. If that failed to transpire "Heads were going to Roll" (Pun Intended)

So, they do not want another revolution after their revolution, or a revolution within their revolution. In the chaos of their revolution, they have the incentive and means to wipe out anyone they think differs from their viewpoint.
