I hope USA Fencing (the org who manages competition fencing in the United States) doesn't bend to right-wing pressure and change their rules. It is a bare minimum to respect your opponent in any martial sport. Otherwise the implicit contract of "we are fighting for sport, not blood" can't be upheld, and you can't trust your opponent to engage safely.
