Displaying patriotism is mandatory in Yankee Stadium and is enforced by the lovable badge-wearing, gun-toting fascists of the New York Police Department. The guy should count himself lucky that there wasn't a broomstick nearby.
Maybe someone in authority ought to point out to the goons in the NYPD that "God Bless America" is just a fucking song. It is not the National Anthem. And even if it was, what business of it is the cops when some guy chooses to go to the crapper?

I suppose he's lucky they didn't put twenty rounds in him, too.
The NYPD seems to be able to get away with just about anything. My guess is that tradition won't end this year.
Blatant violations of basic rights is abhorrent. The case will make it up the ladder, but in the end the Yankees and NYPD will lose... and pay. Whether they will change, or learn anything, is another question.
This is a good story for my blog. Think I'll steal it.
