Mayor Scott Fadness on Free Speech & Public Safety

With a rally by the group Save Heritage Indiana planned in Fishers for August 1, Mayor Scott Fadness sits down with Larry Lannan at City Hall to discuss free speech, public safety and the role of a mayor when national controversies arrive at the city's doorstep. Fadness explains why the city can't — and he believes shouldn't — shut down the event, how Fishers police are preparing to protect both attendees and protesters, and what he says to residents, including members of the local Muslim community, who feel targeted. He also reflects on when a mayor should speak out, the cost of staying silent, and his advice for disagreeing with a neighbor while still living next door.
