The Right-Foot-Right-Arm Crowd

In general, if you play baseball, softball, bowling, basketball or football.....you will lead with your left foot going forward and your right arm then handling the item in a forward motion.

Watch a quarterback, or a pitcher (in baseball)....the left foot leads, then the right arm follows.

I sat today watching some riot video from Seattle and Portland.  I admit, I probably have better things to spend my time upon. 

It kinda hit me.....with around three-quarters of the crowd in a 'rock-throwing' situation.....they were leading with the right-foot, and throwing with the right.

It's an odd movement of the body, and after you've seen it a couple of times....you go back to earlier videos and see this over and over. 

Why?

People who've participated in sports in their youth....develop the skill of throwing things.  It doesn't matter if you grow up on a farm, or in some coastal city.....if you participate in sports, you develop this 'swing'.

People who don't participate in sports....never get the knack of left-foot-right-arm.

What kind of people are like this?  Mostly gamers, who never played sports.  White boys who pretend to grow up...the type that sat on a gamer set for their entire life.

After you realize this....it's just kinda funny....'warrior-juveniles' with a right-foot-right-arm 'swing'.
