Swords don't kill people
Swords, epees, and foils were made for one thing only - killing people. Do you realize how many people have been stabbed, sliced, or diced by these evil assault weapons?? Fencing is nothing but people training to kill someone.
I propose a ban on all blades greater than 3 inches. This is in line with concealed weapon laws already passed in many states

We have quite strict laws about carrying knives, with heavy sentencing introduced a few years ago. The reason? We had a minor epidemic of knife crimes, particularly amongst the young.

Sarge, it's a slippery slope. Next thing only criminals will have Veg-o-matics®
Of course, Veg-o-matics® are really just your average killin' knife covered with a lot of plastic. |

I'd like to see more swordplay, but inside the construct of "first blood". Someone gets cut, honor is served, participants shake hands, and get on with life.

Well that's just a mini wood-chipper really. Sure, it'd take a bit longer for them to die, but is that a good thing?

The brave little tailor killed seven flies with just one stroke. Of a cloth, even. It CAN be done.

swords are up close and personal, mothafkka. Cowards can shoot from far, far away. I'd prefer a sword death anyway. It would be more...romantic.
