...? One cannot find both morally abhorrent...?

It's the dissonance in the relative consequence and seriousness.

If I find brutalization of innocent life morally abhorrent (and worthy of maximum punishment) in both instances: there is, obviously, no "dissonance."

I find dissonance in paying people to kill babies and jailing them for killing animals. I hold human life far more valuable than any animal. If he'd done this to a goldfish or a garden snake, no one would care.
