The Arrogance of Authority
On a lighter note....

_*The Arrogance of Authority*_

_A drugs squad officer stopped at a farm near Bradford, and talked with an old farmer._

_He told the farmer, "I need to inspect your farm for illegally grown drugs."_

_The farmer said, "Okay, but don't go in that field over there...", as he pointed out the location._

_The drugs squad officer verbally exploded saying, "Mister, I have the authority of the Government with me."_

_Reaching into his rear trouser 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 old farmer nodded politely, apologized, and went about his chores._

_A short time later, the old farmer heard loud screams, looked up, and saw the drugs squad officer running for his life, being chased by the farmer's big ferocious looking 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 old farmer threw down his tools, ran to the fence and shouted at the top of his lungs..._

_(I just love this part.)_
