Ashley Todd is not a legitimate target, but Barbara West is

A couple of friends of mine have said something like this in days past, and I completely agree. Ashley Todd should be off-limits because anyone who cuts backwards letters into her face, let alone making up stories about being beaten up and then lying to the police, for political or any other reasons, is not right and needs help.
