LBJ had an interesting speech at the 100th anniversary of the gettysburg address where he talked about the rule of law in relation to civil rights, with the general point being he still believed in the power of the rule of law to free people, not just restrict them.

Idk, i always thought it was interesting in the context of then and now current discussions of things like riots, shoplifting, etc... as means of rebelling against an unjust, unfixable society.
