Urban Dictionary definition of douchebag: someone who has surpassed the levels of jerk and asshole, however not yet reached fucker or motherfucker. Modern day example? You, Bradford Campeau-Laurion. We've all heard your story (you have made sure of that) and the opinions have been varied. My opinion? You can bite me.
Let me provide the disclaimer that I am a Yankee fan. I have been to about 300 games in the last six years and I live by that team. None of those facts has any influence on my opinion that you should choke on a dick.
Your story is that you decided to use the bathroom during the playing of God Bless America. When security asked you to wait until the song finished, as per stadium policy, you refused to comply, causing them to eject you from the stadium. You claim you had to use the bathroom urgently, which is why you refused to wait yet you told Deadspin in an interview that after being ejected you waited another 45 minutes to relieve yourself when you got home despite the numerous bars outside the stadium that could have accommodated you? Let that be the first of the many parts of your story that don't quite make sense.
You want to tell the world about your rights being violated and how you were victimized. Oh yeah, fuckface? What about the rights of the people who are serving in our military? Yankee Stadium plays that song after an observed moment of silence for our troops overseas. It's a tribute that lasts about 60 seconds and it means something to people who have family serving or have lost someone in the war. You can't hold your piss for a minute so the guy next to you can have his moment? Fuck you.
And what about the NYPD officers who asked you to wait, only to hear you say you don't care about God Bless America and aren't patriotic? Are you forgetting that it was those very officers who lost brothers in 9/11?
Yes, Campea-Laurion, everyone has rights and you have the right to not want to sing, or be patriotic. You can keep your hat on during the national anthem if you want to be rebellious. But have some respect for the people who take something from that moment; the moment that is dedicated to loved ones overseas and the courageous lives who have been lost. You don't have to agree with the war (I don't) and you don't have to like the song (It's actually pretty poorly written), but 60 seconds of respect is not too much to ask for.
Thanks to your public whining and willingness to email every news outlet in the country, your face is now the most recognizable on in New York. I hope someone punches it in.
