This Navy SEAL "fame" incident will not end well.

via Daily Mail.
The Navy SEAL who shot Osama bin Laden dead in the special force's most famous operation can be named today.
The Navy hero is set to give a full interview to Fox News later this month and waive his anonymity but MailOnline has established that he is Rob O'Neill, a highly-decorated veteran who quit after 16 years service.
In an exclusive interview Rob's father, Tom O'Neill, tells MailOnline, 'People are asking if we are worried that ISIS will come and get us because Rob is going public. I say I'll paint a big target on my front door and say come and get us.'
Rob O'Neill, 38, is a former member of SEAL Team Six who has been portrayed on screen in Zero Dark Thirty, Captain Phillips and Lone Survivor.
You fuck with the bull, you get the horns.

Rob's father might have a lackadaisical attitude with regards to his personal protection and the issues that come with it, but he has done exactly what he brags about.  He painted a big target on his front door and ISIS is paying attention.

Yesterday I stated that any person can be found with just a bit of work and the proper resources and today the SEAL's father has been tracked down by the Daily Mail?

This will end badly.  The only thing we can hope is that the other SEALs and their families, that are trying to do things the right way don't end up in the cross-hairs because they had a teammate that couldn't keep his mouth shut.
