...With a serious look, he tells the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs."
The rancher nods, "Okay , but do not go in that field over there", and he motions to 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 slaps it on the counter:
"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 we understand each other? "
The rancher nods politely, apologizes, and goes about his daily duties.
A short time later, the old rancher hears loud screams and sees the DEA officer running for his life chased by the rancher's big and unfriendly Santa Gertrudis Bull...
With every stride the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it seems likely that he'll get gored before he reaches safety.
The officer is utterly terrified.
The rancher throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of his lungs...
"Your badge... Show him your badge!"
