It's a waste of money at best. People that mean harm would bypass it like 9/11 hijacker which were drunk.

e.g. someone is sharing a post about killing children in Gaza or any other highly controversial topic. Gov employee wastes resources try to check this person, he gets a stressful afternoon. System is prone to abuse and would have a lot of false positives.
