OMG... don't hurt their little feelings... The military is going after mean tweets!

The Pentagon has begun to monitor online tweets and comments about senior military officials in a surveillance effort that provides the U.S. Army's 'Protective Services Battalion' the authority to directly pinpoint anyone's location. The Protective Services Battalion – the Pentagon's equivalent to the Secret Service – was initially tasked with safeguarding high-ranking military officers from "assassination, kidnapping, injury or embarrassment," however, has seen its ambit has since expanded to include monitoring social media for "negative sentiment" regarding its leaders or "direct, indirect, and veiled" threats.

If online threats are detected, the Pentagon's battalion can pinpoint one's specific location through "various surveillance techniques and data sources."

So pathetic. How does anyone take these people seriously?
