A quick definition of law martial:

Law Martial, also known as Martial Law, is a set of strict rules that the military enforces during times of war or when the government believes that civil authority has failed. The military takes control of the country to ensure public safety and restore civil authority. Martial law is imposed when the rulers foresee an invasion, insurrection, economic collapse, or other breakdown of the rulers' desired social order. It is like a public right of self-defense against a danger threatening the order or the existence of the state. The military uses force to repress illegal force and the extent of military force used depends on the extent of the disturbance.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Law Martial is also known as Martial Law. It is a law that is imposed during wartime when the army takes control of the country instead of the civil authority. This is done to ensure military security or public safety. The military takes control until the civil authority can be restored. It is also a set of strict rules that are imposed when the rulers perceive that the civil government has failed or might fail to function. Martial law is usually imposed when the rulers foresee an invasion, insurrection, economic collapse, or other breakdown of the rulers' desired social order.

Examples:

  • During a war, if the government feels that the civil authority is not able to maintain law and order, they may impose martial law. This means that the military will take control of the country and govern it until the civil authority can be restored.
  • If there is a threat of an invasion or insurrection, the government may impose martial law to ensure public safety.
  • If there is a breakdown of the social order due to economic collapse or other reasons, the government may impose martial law to restore order.

These examples illustrate how martial law is imposed to ensure public safety and maintain law and order during times of crisis. It is a measure taken by the government to protect the citizens and the country from any potential threats.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalgona I just learned about these things. Apparently they’re featured in Squid Game, but I think Squid Game is just a ripoff of the original Mr Beast Games
I learned today the term fight fire with fire comes from the early day of fire fighting when departments would just bulldoze buildings and then burn them in an attempt to stop a fire from spreading. So to stop fire from burning shit they would burn down other buildings in a more violent and destructive way thus lowering the fires moral so much it refuses to spread and work.

that's like basically how wildland firefighting still works
I did wildland and most of the time it was controlled burns but it is pretty funny to imagine doing that in a city/neighborhood.

The Santa Ana winds kinda helped with that because it pushed the fire back to where it had already burned despite the news media saying everything was going to get worse like the idiots they are.
Cant imagine being the guy to be like "hey so to keep your neighbors house from burning down we are going to bulldoze yours and then catch it on fire"
