Our Government Is The Potent, The Omnipresent Teacher. For Good Or For Ill It Teaches The Whole People By Example. Crime Is Contagious. If The Government Becomes A Lawbreaker, It Breeds Contempt For Law; It Invites Every Man To Become A Law Unto Himself; It Invites Anarchy. To Declare That In The Administration Of The Criminal Law The End Justifies The Means - To Declare That The Government May Commit Crimes In Order To Secure The Conviction Of A Private Criminal - Would Bring Terrible Retributions.
