Today, when a concerted effort is made to obliterate this point, it cannot be
repeated too often that the Constitution is a limitation on the government, not
on private individuals—that it does not prescribe the conduct of private
individuals, only the conduct of the government—that it is not a charter for
government power, but a charter of the citizens' protection against the
government.
