2012-05-09  fihk       Show him your badge!

Recently I received this smile in an email from the USA:

A DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) officer stopped at a ranch in Texas ,
and talked with 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 in that field over there......", as he pointed out the location.
The DEA officer verbally exploded saying, " Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me !"
Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removed his badge and proudly displayed it to the rancher.
"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 rancher nodded politely, apologized, and went about his work.

A short time later, the old rancher heard loud screams, looked up, and saw the DEA officer running for his life,
being chased by the rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull.
The terrified officer was
calling out "Help! Help me! Help!"
The rancher ran to the fence and yelled at the top of his lungs:   
"Your badge, show him your bloody BADGE........ ! !"
