I also agree with him, but that is not what they are asking for. And you are wrong if you think even after 9/11 I would have called for Apple to provide the government with a way to get into any cell phone. And if you don't have a healthy mistrust of government you haven't been paying attention.
And as for the crack about leaving the country, I could not disagree more. The Founding Fathers had a healthy mistrust of government which is why they created the Bill of Rights. They lived under a tyranny and tried their best to design a system of government that limited the power of said government. They did this out of mistrust. If you so trust the government you should leave and go to some totalitarian country where the all knowing benevolent government can do whatever it pleases. As for me, I will stay here where our system of government was at least intended to protect us from tyranny. The ignorance of history and the lack of understanding of the foundation of this country explains why we are in the mess we are in.
This isn't just about Obama, it is about my right to privacy and the government having the ability to search my phone without a warrant. So if they give the phone to Apple and ask them to get the contents off I am fine. But that's not what they want and you know it.
