Me no comprende. Yo comprendo?

An article from the Trib details proceedings in Congress that failed to ban horses from being slaughtered. What I don't understand is why horse slaughter is so hotly debated while hog, cattle, chicken slaughterhouses are commonplace. Why is it that people are so crabby about horses getting eaten? I don't want to eat horse, but if there's a market, why do people care about horses so much?

Help me out.

But what about all the cow lovers? And people that love piggies? And (if they exist) those that heart chickens?

It just doesn't seem fair that horses get all the love. That's all I'm saying.
