A DEA Agent stopped at a ranch in Texas and talked to an old rancher. He told
the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown
drugs."
The rancher said, "Okay, but don't go into that field
over there", as he pointed out the location.
The DEA Agent verbally exploded and said, "Look mister,
I have the authority of the federal government with me!"
Reaching into his rear back pocket, the arrogant officer removed
his badge and proudly displayed it to the rancher.
"See this badge?! This badge means I can go wherever I
want... On any land! No questions asked, no answers given! Do you understand
old man?!"
The rancher kindly nodded, apologized, and went about his
chores. Moments later the rancher heard loud screams, he looked up and saw the
DEA agent running for his life, being chased by the rancher’s big Santa
Gertrudis bull...... With every step the bull was gaining ground on the
officer, and it was likely that he'd sure enough get gored before he reached
safety. The officer was clearly terrified.
The old rancher threw down his tools, ran as fast as he
could to the fence, and yelled at the top of his lungs...... "YOUR BADGE!
SHOW HIM YOUR BADGE!"
