Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"I ask every American to respect the law, and to respect also the men who are pledged to its enforcement."

"I urge the people of the United States to observe Law Day with appropriate ceremonies and by reaffirming their commitment to freedom and the supremacy of law in our lives."

"Your courage and your self-sacrifice have provided us with a glowing example of what I believe is the best of American manhood."

"And of those who wear the badge, I ask an equal respect both for the law and for the rights of the people they are sworn to protect."
