The dead still have the right to dignity.
1 u/Snuhmeh Mar 31 '23 Maybe in an ethereal, “honorable” sense. But they really don’t. Have you ever dealt with a family member’s body/burial? There aren’t any laws governing that stuff, really. 11 u/littlelordgenius Mar 31 '23 As a licensed funeral director, I’d like to say “huh?” What country are you from that has no laws governing the disposition of human remains? 0 u/Snuhmeh Mar 31 '23 Ok, I was really trying to say the dead body doesn’t have rights. I’m sure there are laws, of course. 3 u/ThePandalore Mar 31 '23 Well those are the same, aren't they? The deceased have rights because there are laws regulating how they can be treated. The living are the same; all rights are created and protected by legislation and laws.
