I am not sure if this falls under "common sense," "education" or "old fashioned values" - but here ya go!
A DEA officer stops at a ranch in Texas , and talks with an 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," as he points out the location.

The DEA officer explodes saying, "Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with 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 or answers given.
Have I made myself clear?
Do you understand? "

The rancher nods politely and re-iterates his concern that he should not go into the field.
"See this badge? The officer shouts again.
"This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish.... on any land, anywhere.
No questions asked. Now Have I made myself clear? Do You Understand? "

The rancher nods again and goes about his business.
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 !!!! "
