    If it's just curiosity I'm not wasting my time on it.

    When you have an actual situation, I may rethink the issue. Or I may not. Depending on how annoying you are.

    It is not illegal in the U.S. to post racial insults about others on your Facebook page. But it might end up violating the law of some other country and almost certainly violates the terms of service of Facebook. At the very least Facebook could take down the offending posts.

    Delete your entire Facebook existence, effectively.

    Really though - this is so incredibly childish. You should stop that.

    Yeah - remove your posts, ban you, and even send you rude emails.

    Easy solution - DON'T be an idiot!!

    So OP has apparently abandoned this particular endeavour in order to go around telling 18-year-old girls they have nice asses and ask them if they wanna have sex with him - but only if it's legal to do so! My mind boggles at the base level this guy lives at. (Dogmatique, we are boggling away together!)
