They're really trying to take everything back to the 1950s: civil rights, women's rights and corruption in government. Interesting.

At least it's not reached the pouring acid into a public pool full of black children point... Yet. 😶🥹🤢

These are fledgling Nazis, still trying to see what they can get away with first. We cannot allow them any leeway, friends & neighbors. Please, do what you can. 🙇🏼‍♂️

Without the good paying jobs and the healthier environment. MAGA republicans want all the cons.

it will only sanction mixed-gender competitions moving forward

I'm not blaming the fencing community, they're really stuck. I'm blaming the fascist government currently in power.

The division explained its decision as a temporary measure while seeking resolution: “We are currently seeking guidance on how to move forward without violating either [the USA Fencing policy or the Minnesota Human Rights act]. Due to this, only mixed events will be sanctioned at this time.”
