Human mind is also part of their body or property, probably the most important part. If you use extensive harassment to damage other person's mind then you're doing actual damage to them. I'm not saying that people should be punished from every bad word they say to each other, and these cases can be borderline, but there have to be limits somewhere, and in most sensible countries there are.
If people would not be such idiots to each other, we would not need such laws, but sadly that will probably never change. Personally I don't see much difference between harassment compared to physically slapping someone to face or etc.
