That's what killfiles are for. You have two options:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kill_file
http://bofh.ch/bofh/bsmh2.html

The first option is not perfect, as you'll still see replies that
quote such people's posts. The second has a few issues with local law
enforcement, but other than that, is a very effective means of
avoiding seeing their posts.
