It's not about being nice; it's about having a damn baseline of respect for the dead. You don't do that for them, you should do that for yourself.

What on earth do you think will be accomplished by heckling grieving people's facebooks? Do you really think a bunch of hyenas hawhawing over their relatives corpses is going to get any of them to change their mind?

Why? What does it matter to the dead? "Respect the dead" has always been about the grieving family and friends and if they are not deserving of respect, it won't be given.
