The dead ALWAYS deserve respect.

Why? I would rather piss on Lenin's tomb than walk respectfully through it. I've no need to respect an executed murderer, just because the State deservedly offed him. I've no need to respect a dead criminal, killed in the act. I've no need to respect a wastrel who accomplished nothing while living. And I most certainly give no payout to the post mortem narcissism sought by suicides. There's many ways of achieving death that command no admiration.

It is actions done while living and the regard of those who knew the deceased that deserve respect. No one deserves respect for merely being dead.
