    • @jleano609

      I think they get to choose their sidearm and rig within reason. But certainly a custom 1911 suits him to a tee. Probably been carrying one since Vietnam.

    Thank you Kelli and Bob for sharing this article on Joe Haralson. It was very informative.
    When I was a kid, I'll be 79 in March, we didn't have a TV so, we listened to the programs on the Radio. The Lone Ranger and other Western programs along with Tales Of The Texas Rangers were my favorites. I still listen to Tales Of The Texas Rangers with Joel McRae on CZcams.
    Sorry for the long spiel.
    Again, thanks for sharing this video.

  • @mfm6376
    @mfm6376 Před 5 měsíci +2

    I grew up admiring and studying the history of the Rangers. I am 56. I learned recently the history of the rangers is darkened with the mass slaughter of Mexicans in the early 1900’s during Pancho Villa’s era. And when the Dallas cop, Amber Guyger, killed that dude eating ice cream in his own apartment a TX ranger got on the stand in her trial and said she had a good shoot and shouldn’t be charged in his opinion. The Tx Rangers are involved in the Uvalde school massacre coverup also. Maybe this old fossil is alright, but what can he really do? Sit around the courthouse and tell lies (stories) all day.

    Congratulations & Appreciate The Rangers. However If We Are Going To Talk Truth The Texas Rangers Are Far From The Best We Have In America. So Many S.W.A.T. Teams Train Harder & Are Far Superior In The Law Enforcement Community. (QRT Teams From The Better & Bigger Police Departments Are Far Better Trained & Train Harder. Rangers Is More A Name Then A Powerful Force As Most Agencies Of Law Enforcement. All You Have To Do Is Simply Look At How Much More Training U.S Marshals Have EVERYDAY Going After The Worst Of The Worst. Lastly Texas Rangers Are Physically Out Matched As So Many Of Them Are Much Older & Simply Don’t Have To Kick In Doors Nearly As Much & Get Their Clothes Dirty. (C’mon Now!!)

  • @JackOutLoud
    @JackOutLoud Před 5 měsíci +1

    Glorifying Texas Rangers, as law-enforcement is one of the most embarrassing and dishonest travesties of history, the Texans can endure. The Texas Rangers are a military unit that was commandeered after the Civil War, and made into the comical police unit of today. The Henry Lee, Lucas, epic showed just how dysfunctional the Texas Rangers were as a police force. The era following the Civil War, turned the Rangers into a comical organization. Continuing to fawn over the organization as a law-enforcement agency is a disgrace and an insult to the military history of the families of the Texas people.

    • @Tusk_Tact
      @Tusk_Tact Před 5 měsíci +4

      I agree with the glorification part however I think there is value in being open about their sorted history. I hate this societal trend of wanting to bury everything that makes us uncomfortable. We can acknowledge and even pay a degree of homage to something without celebrating it. I personally find it un-American to glorify anything about the government. That said, there is an instrinsuc value in acknowledgement and study thereof. Mind you I say this as a Black man who has been born and raised here in TX, as well as numerous generations of my family. We personally know some of those horrors but the beauty of that struggle deserves acknowledgement not forgetfulness.

Yes , a few made bad mistakes. 65 years ago, I would listen to my great uncle tell stories about his life as a Texas Ranger ! He caught a lot of criminals and crooked politicians. Bent the law a few times. The only people that didn’t like him were outlaws, but they respected him.
