The arrogance of authority



 
The Arrogance of authority... 
 


DEA officer stops at a ranch in Texas, and
talks with an old rancher. He tells the rancher, "I need to inspect
your ranch for illegally grown drugs." The 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 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 nods politely, apologizes, 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 by the
rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull......

With every step the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it seems likely that he'll get gored  before he
reaches safety.  The officer is clearly 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!"
