The government should not be scrutinizing anyone’s social media outside of a criminal investigation with a warrant.
Public posts have no expectation of privacy.
There's a world of difference between witnessing something in public and following someone around, making note of everything they say and do "in public." We call the latter "stalking" when an individual does it.
Looking at someone’s post history != following a person around.
Further following someone around is not stalking there has to be an action that would make someone fear being harmed.
