Court Postcard
In the UK: is property more valuable than life?
Not in a linking mood but if you look at sentencing in English courts overall, it seems that as if crimes against property gets harsher sentences than crimes against the person.
So i ask the question ...
Answers on a postcard please 
It does seem that way. It's a hangover from when property and in particular land was more important than the lives of the serfs who worked it. Also if you look at the law under which assaults etc are usually prosecuted, the Offences Against the Person Act, it was passed in 1869, I think. Long overdue for repeal and reform if you ask me.
