Texas Rangers were also to protect people from criminals.
They protect us from the Indian.
A Texas ranger was a young man, usually in his early 20s, who guarded the frontier for the settlers from Indian raids in the 1800s. The Indians believed that the land was rightfully theirs, so they fought the settlers who built their homes there. The Texas Rangers defended these settlers from the raids. Eventually the Indians were pushed off to reservations in exchange for the US to provide them with food and supplies. this was formed from the Medicine Lodge treaty. Hope that helped :) P.S. The Texas Rangers are also a baseball team in Texas
Most likely to protect cities in Texas.
