I want to update my Python framework on Mac and delete the old versions but I am not sure if is safe to
rm -fr /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4 - 2.5 - 2.6 -3.0 etc. Any suggestion?

If Python came with your operating system, removing it is not recommended. If you remove it, whatever tools were written in Python will no longer run, and some of them might be important to you. Reinstalling the whole system would then be required to fix things again.
Yes, it's safe.
The Mac's system python's are in /System/Library/....
.dmg's downloaded and installed from python.org are placed in /Library/....
Don't delete the /System ones, but the /Library ones are user installed, so they should be safe to delete.
