Why can you criticize a person when he's alive but not after he's dead? Are those things mutually exclusive or something?

When a person dies, it is a reminder that despite our differences we are all human. It's a time to let go of past grievances. Death will come to us all, and is probably the most difficult thing we have to face, let people go through it with some dignity.

A persons death doesn't automatically wipe off any ill-doings of this person (this is generally speaking!). RIP Barry, but things must still be open for discussion. It doesn't take away any respect for a dead person. This is IMHO.
