the authorities did not handle each and every house in watertown that way, i wonder what made them act that way re: that home and the occupants?
here's a photo of a watertown cop that is going viral, he is delivering milk to a family during the lockdown
so i will ask you the same question-
Do you find how they treat the residents acceptable or disturbing?

Well, we know they were looking for one suspect. There was no other reason for them to be doing what they were doing, and that was their justification of it all. None of those residents were him, and they clearly could see that, so they should not have been barked at, told to keep their hands up, and patted down like criminals.
Regarding the photo, they were confiscating items that could be hiding a bomb and destroying them. I watched them do this to several items live on CNN. Additionally, even if that was only milk (is it milk or motor oil?), he should not be touching anyone's personal property. But my guess is he was taking them to be destroyed, or at least dumping out the milk. Or he knows the family. All the stores were closed, so he did not fetch milk for someone.
