Pro Slaughter Advocates Acknowledge Fundraiser a Dismal Failure

Cheyenne, (UOH) – Times are hard, especially in the horse business, and in these uncertain economic times people are just not able or willing to financially support fundraising efforts. This has made it difficult to complete our Dodge truck raffle that we started at the National Finals Rodeo. Our board members and advisers are pretty evenly split in their opinion of our best course of action, so under the circumstances, we have decided to ask you…the dedicated supporters who put up your hard earned dollars, what you think…


Here is the situation:

Our original plan was to sell 2,000 tickets at $100 apiece which would allow us to pay for the pickup at a discounted price with a good return to support the efforts of the organization. We thought we might be able to sell the entire 2,000 at the National Finals Rodeo because we had so much good support from the stock contractors, the Southpoint Casino and others, and were in a great location.

As it turned out we were only able to sell about 250 tickets at the NFR. After the NFR and several other events when it became very evident that we had set our original target far too high, we lowered our goal to 1,000 tickets with the hope that we could increase incentive by raising the odds of winning. We planned to close the raffle and give away the truck as soon as we were able to reach that goal.

Since then, through several email promotions, and the dedicated efforts of a few, we have only been able to sell about 50 more. Our count as of today is 302 tickets sold, far short of what we needed to even pay for the pickup, let alone raise any money to pay for political action, or help with a practical plan to create solutions for the horse industry.

    What a dimwit. She still doesn’t get it. People know she’s all about the killing and they just don’t want to be associated with her.
    This woman is pathetic. Just pathetic.

    With her last breath, she will try to sell a ticket!

    Lightbulb moment! No one wants to be associated with you or support HORSE SLAUGHTER which is the only goal of the UOH. Only a half-wit would continue to drone on about her fund raising effort and actually publicize her abject failure to even come close to the goal. Numbers do not lie. 70%+ of Americans polled want you to crawl off in a hole and take your slaughter promotion with you. 85% of the tickets you had went unsold. Hmmmm, correlation? Time to lay off the bute-laden horse meat, Sue, it’s affecting your cognition and reasoning ability, what little there was of it.

    Sue Wallis is a disgrace to the human race.

      Gosh, silly me Marge. I thought that was the orifice from whence her drivel came.

    Slaughter House Sue is a disgrace to Wyoming and they should hang their heads for having anything to do with her !

    When the time comes VOTE HER OUT.

    Well, just a few more bute laden horses and that will be it anyway. I just cannot understand this uh, person. Slaughtering horses seems to be her only goal in life. Strange!

    Hey Sue…Go and write another one of your BRILLANT POEMS, LIKE FAR FAR AWAY AND WHILE YOUR ON THAT TRIP…GO AND PICK UP A NEW HEART, THE ONE YOU HAVE NOW IS NOT WRKING RIGHT….

    Sue is a dismal failure. Vote her out and be done with her. She ought to crawl back into the hole she surfaced from. A sorry example of a human (humane) being.
