A DEA officer stopped at our farm yesterday, "I need to inspect your farm for illegal growing of drugs."
I told him that was fine, just not to go into that field over there..."
The DEA officer exploded, saying "Mister, I have the authority of the federal government with me!" He reached into his rear pants pocket, whipping out a badge and shoved it into my face. "You see this **** badge?! This badge means I'm allowed to go wherever I want, on any land! No questions asked or answers given! Have I made myself clear?! Do you understand??"
I nodded politely, apologized, and went about my chores. A short time later I heard loud screams. I looked up, and saw the DEA agent running for his life, being chased by my mean old bull. With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it seemed like he'd be gored before he reached safety.
I threw down my tools, ran to the fence, and yelled at the top of my lungs, "Your badge! Show him your badge!"
