The municipality officer verbally exploded saying, " Mister, I have the authority of the Government with me!" Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removed his badge and proudly displayed 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 given!! Have I made myself clear... do you understand?!!"

The farmer nodded politely, apologized, and went about his chores.

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 farmer threw down his tools, ran to the fence and yelled at the top of his lungs... "Your badge, show him your BADGE!!!
