What is the name of your state? New York

I have been getting instant messages from this girl that I have put on my ignore list because of her remarks about me and my kids, such as, because my children are bi racial i should kill them myself or they deserve to be raped and killed. This really gets to me because because shes involving my kids. I do not respond back to her and I have saved all the messages she had left me. Is there anything legal I can do to stop her besides changing my sn?

No.

If the other person were directly threatening you or your kids ("I'm going to kill you" as opposed to "you should die" sort of thing), AND you knew the person's REAL name and REAL address, you could potentially take printouts of logs or screenshots to the police department in the other person's location and see if they wanted to pursue something. But that's about it. There really isn't anything illegal about being a racist or a jerk online.
