The CEO of Twitter, Dorsey continue to say that the banning of Trump was the right thing to do - but it also raises the question, how far are we willing to go? Even though I personally agree that Trump has some ideas and meanings that does not bode well, I still believe in freedom of speech.

There are lots of countries in the world, where you aren't free to express yourself. When we now allow the same thing to happen in the Western world, then we should stop and think for a bit. Is this really what we want? Is this the path we believe is the right? What happened to freedom of speech, even if the expressed word is a word of a crazy person? Is it right to ban someone, just because of their belief and position?

I am not so sure.
