Answer: no
Explanation: if the government didn't protect the peoples rights then the people can throw out the government and replace a new and better one to the peoples liking since its well known in the constitution that the people have the power to do so, like the magna carta where the government (king) at the time abused power and gave cruel and usual punishments. The government cannot go against the people or take there rights (John Locke - the social contract) its also why we have our bill of rights to secure our rights for the government does not violate us and rule of law where nobody is above the law. The government would only go to great lengths if it was a issue the people suggest they look into, other then that the government does not go to far lengths for there citizens unless they get called out for it.
