Respect for him or not. But what usually happens here is that his family and friends will be harassed.

In germany issues like this are taken seriously. Here is a famous example of German laws concerning human dignity.

That's a really good point, I hadn't considered family and friends and I recently read that they had to station police officers at his family's house to prevent them from being harassed too much. Wow, I'm glad that there are laws like that in Germany. Can't even imagine somebody winning a case like that in America without having a much worse reason than that.
