Shoe hurling culture

Human beings are different from other animals, particularly in psychological aspects. The Wild animals show their discontent only through violent ways like attacking; barking. We can observe some nonviolent aspects in pet animals. They show their discontent some times not obeying the command of their master. But human beings are rational animals. They show their discontent and dissatisfaction in many ways. They continuously are changing their activities suitable to the present environment. Now days there are many incidents where people showed their grievances by throwing their shoes. Is this a new culture or, adopted from past? In logic and psychology it is believed that all the knowledge is posterior.
Just go back to the past and remember the shoe hurling incidents which shook the whole world.
