A Missouri Sheriff's Deputy stops at a ranch in rural Missouri and talks with an old farmer. He tells the farmer, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegal grown drugs."
The old farmer says, "Okay, but don’t go in that field over there."
The deputy verbally explodes saying, "Mister, I have the authority of the Sheriff's Department with me." Reaching into his rear pants pocket and removing his badge, the officer haughtily displays it to the farmer.
"See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish ... on any land. No questions asked or answers needed. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand?"
The old farmer nods politely and goes about his chores.
A short while later, the old farmer hears loud screams coming from the direction of the field and spies the deputy running for his life. Close behind is the farmer’s massive bull. With every step the bull is gaining ground on the lawman. The deputy is clearly terrified.
The old farmer immediately throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of his lungs ...
"Your badge! Show him your badge!"
