Another quick bit of AppleScript for Aperture

The ID of the keyword is usually the keyword e.g. “Portrait”

N.B. You must select files that have the keyword otherwise the script will error.

set input to ""
tell application "Aperture"
    set imgSel to (get selection)
    if imgSel is {} then
        error "Please select an image."
    else
        display dialog "Enter id of keyword to delete:" default answer input
        set keyId to text returned of result
        repeat with thisImg from 1 to count of imgSel
            tell library 1
                tell item thisImg of imgSel
                    delete keyword id keyId
                end tell
            end tell
        end repeat
    end if
    display dialog "Done." buttons {"OK"} with title "Alert!" with icon note
end tell
