I must say, the huge amount of force, weapons and tanks, and how easy it was to herd the civilians is to me scary..
Is this the view of the coming future?

-——Is this the view of the coming future?-—

It is the view of now, reality, what is.
watertown was under military rule of police. The actual police state existed. It is now, not tomorrow

Massive warrantless searches took place Rights were disregarded.

The state prevailed

A definition of "tank" includes that it be a tracked vehicle. No such thing was evident in the pictures in the article. Let's leave the rhetoric to the other folks, shall we, and just deal in the facts.

FACT: at most, the black police vehicle with a gunner's hatch is an armored personnel carrier and that would be stretching the term.

FACT: the military Humvees appear to have been up-armored, based on the windows/doors. However, I could see no weapons on any of the military personnel. How does this qualify for "martial law" if the military is deployed without weapons?
