A day or two after the attack in NY, I was flipping channels and Outnumbered (I think?) was on Fox. In the middle of the discussion, one of the, apparently, left leaning women actually made some gun control comment. Poor thing's playbook was broken.

Ha, I almost posted that earlier. The gal who did that lost her job. It should be listed in the SJW thread.

I have long wondered why "Stop" is not the normal gesture.

Ditto. How hard is it to take your left arm and point over your head if going right? The only thing I can think of, is that these signs can also be used for cars, so if you the normal gesture for "stop," it looks like you're waving to someone.

Because you are signaling to those behind you.

They were originally designed for cars before mechanical turn signals existed.

THIS.

In a car it is hard to point over your head and be seen.

They're also for HD riders too cool to use the actual equipped turn signals. Remember, if you're a "cool" HD rider, left is not parallel with the road, but at a 45 degree angle down so it looks like you're waving.

It is now legal, at least in Indiana, to signal a right bicycle turn with your right hand.

We needed a law for that?

What's the signal for, "I'm going to ride my bike on the sidewalk straight at pedestrians"?

Yes, otherwise Barney Fife might decide to cite someone for failing to signal.

Using the raised left arm to signal a right turn is rarely understood by most drivers. In addition, while cycling the raised left arm throws off your center of gravity and puts your hand farther away from your handlebars, thus you have less control.

See what happens when you take your left hand off the bars...

I just now noticed exactly what your avatar says...

No, no. When you point down like that, it's to point out a road hazard. Since it's a Harley, it's probably oil
