A DEA officer stops at a ranch in Montana , and talks with an
old rancher. He tells the rancher, 'I need to inspect your
ranch for illegally grown drugs.'
The old rancher says, 'Okay, but don't go in that
field over there' as he points out the location.
The DEA officer verbally explodes
saying, 'Mister, I have the authority of the Federal
Government with me.' Reaching into his rear pants pocket,
he removes his badge and proudly displays it to the farmer.
'See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go
wherever I wish...on any land. No questions asked or
answers given. Have I made myself clear? Do you
understand?'
The old rancher nods politely and goes about his chores.
A short time later, the old rancher hears
loud screams and sees the DEA officer running for his life
chased close behind by one of the rancher's bulls. With every
step the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it looks
like the bull is going to "horn in on his business" before he
reaches safety. The officer is clearly terrified. The old rancher
throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of
his lungs.....
'Your badge, man! Show him your badge!'
