A DEA officer stopped at our farm yesterday, he said “I
need to inspect your farm for illegal growing drugs.”
I said “Okay, but don’t go in that field over there.”
The DEA officer verbally exploded saying, “Mister, I
have the authority of the Federal Government with me!”
Reaching into his rear pants pocket, the arrogant
officer removed his badge and shoved it in my face.
“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?!!”
I nodded politely, apologized, and went about my
chores. A short time later, I heard loud screams,
looked up, and saw the DEA officer running for his
life, being chased by my big old mean bull…. With every
step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it
seemed likely that he’d sure enough get gored before he
reached safety. The officer was clearly terrified.
I threw down my tools, ran to the fence and yelled at
the top of my lungs
“Your badge, show him your BADGE!!”
