A DEA officer came to a farm. “I need to inspect your farm for any illegally grown drugs,” he said.
“Okay,” the farmer replied, “but don’t go in that field over there.”
The DEA officer verbally exploded, saying, “Mister, I have the authority of the federal government with me!” Reaching into his back pocket, the officer pulled out his badge and shoved it in the farmer’s face. “See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish … on ANY land! No questions asked or answers given! Do I make myself clear? Do you understand?”
The farmer nodded politely, apologized, and went about his chores. A short time later, the farmer heard loud screams, looked up, and saw the DEA officer running for his life, being chased by a big old mean bull! With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it seemed likely that he’d get gored before reaching safety. The officer was clearly terrified.
So, the farmer threw down his tools, ran to the fence, and shouted at the top of his lungs, “Your badge, show him your badge!!”
