The phone was given to the person by the County....it isn’t his/her personal cell phone...
I don’t agree with Trump on this issue, because its another way to for the government to get into our private lives, but on the other hand, it was given to a ‘terrorist organization’ by the County and we should know what’s on it...
So there we are...do we, and hope the government will stop at that or do we not and don’t know who the rest of the ‘terrorist cell’ is?
This is not that complicated.
Imagine a safe in a bank.
The FBI can go to the bank and ask for access to the criminals safety deposit box.
The FBI does not need the banks combination to its safe.
Trump is saying, open the safety deposit box. That’s all.
We know that government never "stop[s] at that", or willingly gives up any power it has seized. We also know that domestic tyranny is a greater threat to We the People than foreign terrorism. The bloody history of the XX Century shows us clearly what unrestrained governments do to their subject people.
I know one thing about Apple: if they could, they'd fire EVERY AMERICAN they employ and replace them with Indians or other H1-B visa holders. Every one of them. And at the earliest opportunity Apple will move every job they have to India.
