This letter really made me think about occupation and what it really means. It reminds me of the message this guy is trying to send (albeit subtly) about how, we're constantly being recorded everywhere. Grocery stores, banks, etc. It's only when you put a face behind the camera that people get nervous, overreact, aren't as subdued as they would be. Is it any less 'evil' when there's a face? No. The US isn't necessarily monitoring Boston more then they usually are, and definitely not more than they could. Just instead of the usual monitoring, it's a face behind the muzzle in the form of military police. Yes it's more unnerving, but ask yourself, is it really more 'evil'?
