I suppose it depends on context - in the cursed earth when he says "when someone calls on the law for help, be they alien, human, mutie or cyborg, the law cannot turn a blind eye - and I am the law" the emphasis would logically be on the "I am".

On it's own, as an announcement of his arrival, "law" would make more sense.

I think the emphasis is on the whole phrase. I AM THE LAW

Peace is a lie, there's only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.

I thought I'd always thought it was on "law", but that Anthrax clip makes me wonder if that's why. I've never heard it as a real dramatic emphasis on any word though.
