This movie was made in ...Hell yes you are correct. This movie was made in the early 70's when the Chicano Movement was it's peak. Officer Ramirez became a Texas Ranger, the elite Texas Governor appointed slot, and visited Nixon High. My history teacher there in 76 made a class discussion from this movie. Ranger Ramirez later attended the FBI academy in which most high ranking law enforcement officers attend to further their qualifications. Met a chief from a local PD here in the Houston area and was very impressed with Ramirez . That chief attended the same FBI class as Ramirez did and basically that chief spoke highly of him ,Ramirez could even walk on water.rick78noreply@blogger.com
