A DEA (Drug
Enforcement Agency) 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."
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, the arrogant officer removed his badge and proudly
displayed it to the rancher.
"See
this fucking 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
chores.
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......
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.
The rancher
threw down his tools, ran to the fence and yelled at the top of his
lungs.....
(I just love this part....)
