There's no such thing as humane meat or eggs.
Opinion piece from The Guardian (not necessarily my opinion):
Many people think they consume humane meat, but only a tiny fraction actually do. The majority of consumers are totally wrong about what they eat

As far as I can tell, the alert system doesn't tell the jury what forum a post is in. I may have reconsidered my vote to leave it had I known, because I do respect the idea that these groups are protected. The old jury system did a better job in this respect. I think the alert reason should have been the Statement of Purpose choice, and then perhaps it would be handled differently...? I know that group hosts used to have the ability to deal with this kind of stuff.
Anyway, don't want to derail the thread or anything, just wanted to mention this...
eta: I guess Statement of Purpose violation is only an option on an OP. I don't know what the admins expect us to do in a case like this 
If not, you do not have an argument. It's perfectly possible, in fact much cheaper, these days to feed and clothe oneself and one's family without supporting the torture and slaughter of innocent animals.
Furthermore, what's being done to cows, pigs, and chickens these days is much, much worse than anything a plains Indian could have imagined. They would probably have found it cowardly and inhuman. And you're actively supporting it with your dollars, while using the Indians (Indians!) as your justification. 
I find it so amusing when a meat-eater pulls the "But I have to feed my family!" argument. When one's goal is to fool oneself, one doesn't realize how weak and unconvincing one's arguments are.
