This has been a particularly bloodly couple of weeks for the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo. Between Jan 16 – 29 at least 2 horses died at saddle bronc events, and 2 calves died during roping events, all due to spinal cord injuries and other broken bones.
From now until the end of rodeo season (Feb 4), let’s bombard the twitter & Facebook pages and post results for #FWSSR and let folks know that if you go to the rodeo or the fair, you’ve got blood on your hands!
Example tweets/posts:
@FWSSR has blood on their hands! #FWSSR #animalabuse #2deadhorses
2 dead horses in 2 weeks. Shame on #FWSSR! #animalabuse
Hey @FWSSR how many animals died today? #FWSSR #animalabuse #2deadhorses
No more dead horses! Boycott #FWSSR! #animalabuse #animalexploitation
Other tips and info:

For Facebook, you can use the hash tag and tag the official page as well; comment on posts and photos posted by the page.
