FEATURE Debbie’s Discernments By Debbie Powers H


ello Everyone! It has certainly been a hot and wet spring and


summer thus far! Not that we like it, but we will all go on to live another day and eat another meal. We always hope for beautiful weather and higher grosses each and every location, but of course that is not realistic. I always say, if you cannot handle the rain, you should consider another profession! I came across an article on restoring Americanism, or to


be more specific, the culture on which we were founded and have lived by for many, many years. I do believe or choose to be- lieve the majority of us still elect to live by theseprinciplesbut, unfortunately, plenty have gone rogue. I am not here to criticize anyone’s thinking patterns but I am confused on how some people think certain things are accept- able and correct. From many indi- viduals’ perspective the thoughts and views they portray have no “Common Sense.” Intelligence and common sense are similar in some ways but different in oth- ers. Websters’ version of common sense is “sound and prudent judgment based on a simple perception of the situation or facts.” Going with that defi- nition, is it common sense to pretend that a man can be a woman? Or to pretend that you do not know what a woman is? Is it common sense to open the borders to anyone and everyone from foreign countries without any vetting and then to further that chaos, feed, house, and nurture the mil- lions of illegal migrants on our taxpayer dollars? The abnormal is not the normal just because it is present


and some say it is normal – for example, the media and a few “intellectuals” that refer to the millions that broke our laws and are illegal migrants as our “undocumented new neighbors.” Worse yet is the mutilation of children and call- ing it “gender affirming care.” Placing sexual and suggestive literature in elementary public schools where vulnerable and naive children are forced to read them is despicable to say the least! The Cambridge dictionary’s definition of common sense is “the ability to use good judgment making decisions and to


Logic…… You make practical decisions based on real-life experiences and logical reasoning.


Efficiency…… You can handle everyday challenges and solve problems efficiently.


live a reasonable and safe way.” Common sense is a form of intelligence based on pattern recognition and logic. In simple terms, it is based on the ability to reach intelligent conclusions without sophistication or special knowledge. A good term for it is Practical Thinking! Here are the characteristics of someone possessing Common Sense:


Judgment…… You can differenti- ate between right and wrong.


Adaptability…… You adapt well to different situations and are flexi- ble in your approach.


Consequences…… You under- stand the consequences of your ac- tions and act accordingly.


Empathy…… You have understand- ing and are sensitive vicariously to the thoughts of others.


Awareness…… You are aware of your environment, situation, etc. and act accordingly.


Responsibility…… You have mor- al, legal and mental accountability.


There are more. But by now you get the picture between


intellectual knowledge and common sense. The reason I have explained all this is as conservative,


morally intelligent individuals we need to stop capitulating to the big mouths with off-the-wall ideals that expect us to roll over and not question the stupidity, or worse yet accept their horrendous view points and opinions. We all need to stand up and use our COMMON SENSE to what we know is right and not cave to their manipulative, cunning ways by making us feel guilty or less human when we do not agree with them. We need to get our country back on track to its origin. I


say to all those who are not happy here, there are over two hundred (200) other countries to choose from. Take your pick, move out and move on! I’ll even help you pack!


As Always Debbie
