Everything here is personal; subjective opinion comes into play, and the spirit of the constitution, the danger of the times, must supply the more particular circumstances. In times of war, for example, many things otherwise harmless are to be regarded as harmful. Through these aspects of contingency and arbitrary personal judgment, the police acquire something odious. Given a highly cultivated reflection, they can take the direction of drawing everything possible into their sphere, for in everything a connection can be found through which something might become harmful. In this the police can proceed very pedantically and inconvenience the ordinary life of individuals. But whatever inconvenience this may be, an objective boundary line cannot be drawn here.
