No, I and everyone else was still able to leave our homes. We were free to assemble in large numbers outside. I (and many others) exercised free assembly rights to protest the murder of George Floyd, for example (not the riots... ironically the one example of somethimg resembling martial law being imposed, albeit belatedly and with great reluctance). There was no curfew, particularly no curfew enforced by the military with threat of violence... ah, except during actual riots in a few cities. Businesses were forced to close alongside many non-essential government services. Nobody was jailed, not even in their own homes. Enforcement was through ordinary civil means, not by actual soldiers pointing guns at you, unaccountable to civilian law.
