Join Colonel West as he explores current events in the pure and unvarnished context of the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Breaking the Law
The preeminent role of government is to safeguard the unalienable, natural rights of the individual: life, liberty, and property. Instead of each of us going about as armed vigilantes, we submit to the government the responsibility to collectively secure and protect those rights.
Who Is Above the Law?
Politicians on the left often proclaim that “no one is above the law,” yet their actions suggest a very different standard when it comes to their own allies.
Constitutional Hypocrisy
The military operation into Venezuela was indeed moral, just, and constitutional. Under Article II powers of the Constitution, the President, as Commander-in-Chief of our Armed Forces, is charged with the protection of our Country.
Why America has the Second Amendment
19 April 1775. On that day, there was no American Army, Navy, or Marine Corps; matter of fact, there was no America. However, there was an understanding that armed individuals could be free citizens who attain liberty; disarmed individuals can only be subjects.
Sympathy for the Devil
How does the United States deal with non-state, non-uniform unlawful combatants? Those who are part of a defined state's armed services, who wear a common uniform, and openly carry their weapons and arms are recognized by the Law of Land Warfare as "lawful combatants.” And, as lawful combatants, they are afforded what is termed "combatant privilege.” Go back and read about the Geneva Convention protections. However, non-state, non-uniform belligerents on the battlefield, terrorists, are not afforded combatant privilege because they are unlawful combatants.
Thanksgiving and Our First Freedom
Greetings y'all, I am praying that everyone will enjoy a blessed Thanksgiving with family and friends. This is one of those special American celebrations, traditions, but it is also imperative that we understand the real nature of why we should be giving thanks.
The Islamo-Fascist Threat to America
When an enemy tells you who they are and their strategic objectives, you have two choices: reduce the threat or stupidly allow it to thrive.
What is Law to the Marxist Left?
What is law to the Marxist left? To the rest of us, the law is the law. To the Marxists, it is whatever they want it to be to maintain control.
Is Islam Compatible With Our Constitutional Freedoms?
I have often said that when tolerance becomes a one-way street, it leads to cultural suicide.
Leftists Don’t Like Killing Bad Guys…If They Can’t Define the Bad Guys
The border is secured, and so shall our seas be, and this hemisphere, of the infiltration and intervention of bad guys into America. This is not some law enforcement operation. It is a combat deterrent operation.
