Tisinger US CA: LTE: SCRIVNER'S PAST SHEDS LIGHT Well, well. I have always wondered why Zack Scrivner hates police and firefighters so much. Now we know why ("Councilman Scrivner reveals past drug arrest," Oct. 16). I'm sure at the time of his arrest on drug charges, he blamed the cops for ruining his chances, for the most part, of ever being hired as a civil servant. This must be the reason he wants to be a career politician. Who else would hire him? And now, we find out that we have a guy on the Bakersfield City Council who is using his position to get back at the cops and firefighters he hates so bad. What's really sad is that he was able to convince the other numbskulls on the council to go along with his campaign of hate. What a stinkin' joke on all of us. I hope Scrivner loses the election and goes back to driving around your neighborhood selling frozen food -- or maybe he can find a minimum-wage job that his party is trying to create more of.
