Right-Clicking on a fence causes the player to swing fist

When your cursor is aimed at a fence block, your right click option will not work. It will show your fist/selected item swinging at the fence, but not breaking it.

What i expected to happen was my right-click to activate the item i am holding (eg holding right-click to eat food.)

What actually happened was my fist swings like it is trying to break the fence, but without it actually breaking it.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Aim cursor at fence.
2. Hold right-click.
3. Watch fist swinging without activating the exact items right-click function.

Note: You can still place blocks on fence with right-click, it just happens with items that are not placeable. ie eating, blocking with swords, right-clicking on armor, tools, bare fists.
