How long before they write an open letter to the police chief, and mayor? 

What are you trying to stir up with this? What are you referring to?

What new ideas have come out of the major car makers since Henry Ford's days? Not much. The only differences are cosmetic and a few engine upgrades. Nothing major. Tesla made a huge leap with better batteries and a power system that puts ICE vehicles to shame. Give Apple a chance to use its engineering and design abilities to see what they can do before blowing them off.

Why does the FBI need Apple's cooperation at all? Can't they just hire hackers to do what they want? And no, they don't need Apple to digitally "sign" their hacked copy of iOS, because they can simply replace that iPhone 5c's ROM chip(s) with altered ROMs that don't care if the OS isn't signed properly. If you have physical possession of the iPhone -- and it's a pre-secure-enclave iPhone -- you can do whatever you want. (That's why Apple came up with the secure enclave.)

I think the FBI wants Apple to do it for them, simply to set a legal precedent -- a precedent that later might be leveraged into a mandatory built-in backdoor. Without such a backdoor, and with the secure enclave, today's iPhone 6 designs are impenetrable even with the iPhone in your possession, and even by Apple.

Interesting that they are after Apple to get the data.  Could be a crack showing in the abilities of the NSA.  Why hasn't the FBI talked to them, or did they, and the NSA could not provide anything?

The Bible? So it's okay to pick and choose what parts  to obey to the tee and what parts to ignore? That sounds a whole lot like "interpretation" to me. 

Or  to the Commandments? Thou shalt not kill. To the tee? Yet we have an enormous military? So unilateral disarmament because there's no "interpretation" allowed for that very clear directive? That was the statement of the poster I was responding to: NO "interpretation" allowed: To. The. Tee.

Commandment about Sabbath is the only one which does not have significance in New Testament, as it does not play much role in everyday life. Every other commandment is followed to the tee by devout Christians, they are not left for interpretation. Also remember this change of one commandment came from the Author of the Bible, not some interpreter.

As it is already said, murder and self defense are two different things.
