You don't want to do this. For one, it won't really work. If your democracy is so diseased that the only way to get it functional is to take control of the People,
The people in general are fine, but there are -certain- people in power curretly, who have stolen an election and are resisting attempts to audit and bring some transparency and accountability. If the courts are also corrupt, and or sufficietly intimidated, our options are starting to run out.
you have a SOCIETAL PROBLEM, not a legal one.
I consider we have both - societal and legal system problems.
Of course, the warning signs for that were long ago. Try the 80s, when kids committed suicde, and then the 90s where it escalated into stories of kids killing kids in school.
Do we need more law here?
Martial law is actually about, in a way, less law - it is the suspension of due process, replaced with military/marshall process, for a hopefully short period of time. If is exercised by a benevolent dictator such as Donald Trump, then it shall be a useful tool for cleaning up. It may turn out to be the only tool. We shall see...
No. What you need here, after waving away any concerns of insanity when you can't even tell what's true or false, is Dr. Mark Janssen, aka "The Doctor", "ThePastor", "Capt. Dynamite".
I feel like I'm in Ghostbusters.
