While they're alive they can fight back. Why bother when they're dead? Nobody except the truly wicked deserve to have their faults trumpeted after they're dead. Is that how you'd want to be remembered?
When can you speak ill of the dead?

Typically you don't want to speak ill of the dead unless they lived their lives really badly (like Hitler or something). For example, in 2007, Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams was shot. Now, the games before and whatnot, people had all been ragging on him, because playing across one of the best cornerbacks in the league means you're going to get burned a lot. But as soon as he died, that ragging stopped, and people all looked at the good things he had done for the community as well as on the football field.
You can speak ill of the dead if you were auround them alot and they were total dicks to you...
speaking nice about people that have recently died is IMO, bullshit. If you're going to praise someone do it before they kick off, because once they're dead it means absolutely nothing. Give the praise when they're alive, then dole out the insults when they're dead and it doesn't matter. I mean, it's not like they're going to kill themselves over what people say about them once they're dead. And if they do, that's actually pretty amazing and I'd like to know how the hell that's even possible.
Oh, and for the record this applies to singular deaths only. For acts of Genocide and the like you have to wait until the people who died would be dead anyways before it's socially acceptable to crack jokes about it.

Thi....I agree with this statement and while I would compile my own post of similar content, I wouldn't want to put myself at risk of being Ninja'dMaxTheReaper said:

I think it depends on what kind of person YOU think them to have been. Im not too broken up about Micheal Jackson cause he was a little too fond of little boys. But I was sad when Natasha Richardson died cause I felt like she was a nice lady.
Some that live deserve death, and some that die deserve life..
yeah I feel like a dork after saying that.
