ormer Klan
member
and "part-
time" minister
Edgar Ray Killen
was sentenced to 60
years on June 23 for
manslaughter in the
deaths of three civil
HARRY
rights workers in
KIRSBAUM 1964.
The conviction
Columnist
overturned a dead-
locked jury in a
1967 federal court case — the lone
holdout back then said she couldn't
convict a man of the cloth.
Killen is 80 years old. He was con-
victed exactly 41 years after the
deaths, and we all know what he did
when he wasn't on the clock.
Is there a better way to punish a
hateful murderer who's lived half of
his life in freedom? You can start by
taking him off the oxygen.

Oprah Winfrey was turned away from
a Paris luxury store on June 14.
According to an apologetic Hermes
spokesperson, the store had just closed
it doors 15 minutes before Winfrey
arrived for a private public relations
event.
"Hermes regrets not having been
able to accommodate Ms. Winfrey
and her team and to provide her with
the service and care that Hermes
strives to provide to each and every
one of its customers worldwide," the
store said in a statement reported in a
CNN story.
CNN also reported a recently pub-
lished New York Post gossip column,
which cited a quote from someone
saying Hermes locked the doors
because they've been "having a prob-
lem with North Africans lately."
Yeah, no one at Hermes would see
the motorcade and the approaching
entourage and not notice one of the
richest and most famous faces on the
planet. They'd only see trouble corn-
ing to the door.
A spokesperson for Harpo
Productions said that Oprah will talk
about the "crash moment" when her
show resumes in September.

Harry Kirsbaum's e-mail address is
hkirsbaum@thejewishnews.com

Crash is a current movie that deals
with race relations.
Now that Oprah has blessed the
movie by referring to it in a sentence,
look for her minions to head to the-
aters with the same fervor they crash
the bookstores with when she offers
up a nod to an author.
And if you think I'm wrong, then
why is William Faulkner, who died 43
years ago, on the best seller's list?

Who Got Brennan?

I had a nice, smarmy little column
going about Brennan Hawkins, the
11-year-old Boy Scout who got lost in
the Utah mountains and hid from his
rescuers because he was told to be
wary of strangers. It wasn't until after
the press conference that I learned he
was a bit "slow."
Why have a press conference if the
kid is too shy and immature to talk
and keeps looking at his house behind
him, where the video games are?
And why do the cable news net-
works insist on filling time by inter-
viewing experts in Stranger Danger
and wilderness survival?
The kid had more comprehensive
news coverage this week than
President Bush did when Vietnamese
Prime Minister Phan Van Khai came
to visit on June 21.
And if his parents might have told
someone to keep their eyes on him
because he's "not good with direc-
tions," then there would be no story
and Katie Couric and Diane Sawyer
would have to find something else to
smile about.

Don't Tell The Donald

Just when I was getting ready to buy a
new coffee table for the living room, I
read that I might not have a living
room because of a Supreme Court
ruling that gives the city the right to
bulldoze my place to the ground to
put up a strip mall if it thinks it can
collect more taxes.
In a 5-4 decision on Jun. 23, the
Supremes ruled that local govern-
ments have the right to seize private
homes for private economic develop-
ment.
Donald Trump is licking his lips,
and I'm wondering if we're all going
to start begging the government to
raise our assessments. ❑
