MELTON SHOULD SEE ALL EQUAL UNDER LAW

I agree wholeheartedly with your editorial ("Drug laws: Melton can't
play judge, jury, too," May 22) about the need for equal enforcement
of the laws in the matter of Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics Director
Frank Melton's "leniency" toward some drug offenders.

Selective enforcement and selective leniency are equally repugnant and
a denial of our equality before the law.

The law is not Mr. Melton's to play with, nor to any single man, no
matter what position he holds. All must be equal before the law.
