How did you install it? If it was from the package manager, delete it
from there. If it was by hand, take out whatever you added to your
startup file, probably
(require 'bbdb-loaddefs)
or similar, and delete the bbdb directory. There might be other startup
lines to remove if you integrated with gnus or something else. Do M-x
occur RET bbdb RET to help you find everything.
But the real question is /why/ would you want to delete BBDB? You get
the most out of it when you integrate with Gnus or another mail reader
and make use of great features like autocompletion, auto-addition of
addresses, etc. It takes time and effort but it becomes an indispensable
tool.
