Stu Bykofsky Called ‘Fucker’, Among Other Things

Yesterday, Daily News columnist Stu Bykofsky (at right, apparently posing for a Wall Street Journal headshot) weighed in and said we need another 9/11 to make sure the public knows how important it is to stop terrorism. (Because when given the tools to fight terrorists, the government just does a bang-up job.) I don’t really get the reasoning — “In order to stop terrorists from killing Americans some terrorists have to kill Americans!” — but, hey, people can write what they want to.

Anyway, according to Shawn Mullen, former Daily News staffer and blogger, Stu’s column caused quite a stir on the Internets yesterday: Stu Bykofsky, a columnist for the Philadelphia Daily News… has set off a sh*tstorm by writing that he is hoping for another 9/11 terrorist attack because it would bring Americans together again.” Oh! A sh*tstorm!
