Sparrow R. Jones wrote a great post on FaceBook or in perhaps in his own blog that was shared around FB which is where I discovered it and I’m quoting him here:
I am not mad at you that Clinton lost. I am unconcerned that we have different politics. And I don’t think less of you because you vote one way and I vote another. No… I think less of you because you watched an adult mock a disabled person in front of a crowd and still supported him. I think less of you because you saw a man spouting clear racism and backed him. I think less of you because you listened to him advocate for war crimes, and still thought he should run this country. I think less of you because you watched him equate a woman’s worth to her appearance and got on board. It isn’t your politics that I find repulsive. It is your personal willingness to support racism, sexism, and cruelty. You sided with a bully when it mattered and that is something I will never forget. So, no… you and I won’t be “coming together” to move forward or whatever. Trump disgusts me, but it is the fact that he doesn’t disgust you that will stick with me long after this election.
It’s not unloading on them because you’re disappointed in the results, it’s unloading on them because you’re disappointed in their decision, which proves how little they actually care about people like you.
Who is the author of “I am not mad at you because Clinton lost?” It gives credit to Eric Berg as having written or shared it. Is he the author, and how can I get in touch with him? We would like permission to reprint this on HoldReublicansAccountable.org. Please advise.
Eugene the real legitimate author of the quote above is Sparrow R. Jones and I corrected the credit in the post above. You can contact him via her contact page at http://www.sparrowrose.com/contact.html
His. I am a guy. Thanks.
Sorry about that. I have an old old female friend from back when I lived in Katonah NY who goes by the name of Sparrow although it was a nickname in her case. I stand corrected,…again.
Eric Berg did not write that. I wrote that and my name was removed from my words. Do not steal people’s words from them!
Sorry about that Sparrow R. Jones that was never my intention and you’ll notice I wrote in my origional post “Eric Berg shared or wrote:” He obviously shared your text and didn’t write it himself. I’m making the change to give you the credit for what I think is just a great commentary that reflects the thinking of so many of us.
You should fix/reply to this, it’s the first thing on your website and based on this I assumed you were female also.

life and has helped me become a better parent to my Autistic children. […] Sparrow writes with
diplomacy and from a place of genuine concern for the wellbeing of the children in her tribe.”
