The real problem is that the majority of the US population is ignorant about what is going on- shocker I know.
Most think Apple just won't crack the phone and unlock this one device for business reasons. Also that because the terrorist are the bad guys, Apple holding up the investigation is a bad thing, and that they should do the patriotic thing and help out the FBI.
When you try to explain that all iphones will be affected by this, they shake their heads in misunderstanding, and think you support the terrorists.
I pity the future generations of this country.

Cyber security expert says Apple should comply with FBI order
There seems to be much misinformation about what is being asked of Apple when I read this thread and then other articles on the subject.
The link above says Apple is being asked to help bypass a potential auto-erase application that would allow the FBI to hack the login screen with brute force attempts. That seems to be a far cry from installing a backdoor on the iOS of all phones out of the box, no?
Basically this guy says while both parties are exaggerating the claims, Apple would be wise to comply in an effort to prevent legislation that would mandate a backdoor or else a phone couldn't be sold. That legislation is being pushed in NY and CA already I believe.
