All of us have said things that were said in a spirit of anger verbally, and we requested those to whom we spoke please forget we said them.
Courts of law have witnesses speak words that the judge requests the jury to strike from their records.

I'm not against deleting posts either...so long as one takes responsibility for the damages done before the post was deleted.
Perhaps if we didn't have such a soft comfy "delete" cushion, we would all be slower to speak and save everyone, self included, some headaches.
