A Texas man was arrested after he allegedly used his lawnmower to hurl
rocks at three people, including a 9-year-old girl, and then told police
he would do it all again if he had the chance.

Johnny Manning was arrested after he alleged used his riding lawnmower as
a weapon to pelt his roommate, her ex-husband and her daughter with rocks
outside his Santa Fe home on Saturday. The 72-year-old was charged with
injury to a child with intentional bodily injury and criminal mischief,
FOX26 reported.

According to reports, the dispute began when Manning was attempting to
kick out his roommate, Angela Fontenot, out of his home. Fontenot’s ex-
husband, Chris, was dropping Fontenot and their daughter off at Manning’s
home at the time.

Manning told the news station he had kicked Fontenot out of him house a
few weeks ago – something she denied.

"I said, 'Put them back in the car and take them back where you got them,
your house,'" Manning said. "I motioned to him [Chris] like that, I told
him 'get out of my driveway.’”

Manning claimed Chris Fontenot challenged him to a fist fight after
backing his vehicle out of the driveway.

"I can't get out and do this no more. I'm 72 years old," Manning said.

A probable cause affidavit stated that Manning then got on his riding
mower, drove it to the end of a gravel driveway and began spinning the
machine around to send rocks flying toward the SUV.

"He just came full blown speed right at us with a John Deere lawnmower
with the blades to the ground," Chris Fontenot said. "One rock came
through my window, landed in my chest."

"I just saw nothing but a big old poof of air and rocks and it splattered
me and hit me in my face," Angela Fontenot told FOX26.

The rocks shattered two windows, left dents and scratches on the vehicle.
Angela Fontenot and her daughter were also injured by flying rocks pelting
them in their faces, the report stated.

Manning later admitted to police for launching the rock attack, saying he
“would do so again if he had the chance,” the report stated. Manning also
told FOX26 he does regret hitting the 9-year-old.

Chris Fontenot also told police Manning “does not like him.”

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.

Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.

Obviously, we need better rock control legislation.
