The power of the badge

Rico says his father sends along this one:
A DEA officer stops at a ranch in Texas and talks with the 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", and points out the location.
The DEA officer explodes, saying: " Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government behind 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. 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!"
