You can either remove them from your friends list or you can block them by clicking on the link that will pop up when your cursor hovers over their post. You can choose "Remove this post" or "Block all posts by _______".

There are three ways to block someone:
  1. Go to the Block Lists from your Privacy Settings page. Enter the name or email address of the person you want to block in the appropriate field and click "Block."
  2. If you cannot find someone using the person search field, you may be able to block that person by navigating to the "Report/Block this Person" link at the bottom of his or her profile page. Once you click this link, check the "Block this person" box and then click "Submit."
  3. You can also block someone through the "Report" link located next to messages in your Inbox.
