Why do you think most crimes are property crimes? Because the law is only to protect property.
That’s just blatantly untrue, all kinds of actions are criminalized that have nothing to do with property. My hot take is that most crime is property crime because that’s the kind of crime that the perpetrator actually benefits from. If you steal something, you now have that thing. If you murder someone, you’re not any better off than before (aside from whatever loot your victim might drop, which is generally not worth it).
And in a system predicated on private property, that becomes the most heinous crime.
The only reason there are laws beside theft and fraud etc, us to give the illusion that police are there to protect people. And also, murder and rape are kinda problematic for the bottom line.
