To the editor: The Herald's Sept. 1 People Column reports that
filmmaker Oliver Stone received three years' probation and an order to
attend drug rehab for possessing a small amount of hashish and other
drugs.

It makes you wonder how the thousands of unfortunate nobodies in Texas
and other prisons would feel if they had access to news of such
glaring inequality and no chance of rehabilitation.
