Chowdhury Got Angry When Garage Door Didn't Open Quickly.

A state legislative candidate from Jefferson County accused of slapping and choking his 16-year-old daughter pleaded guilty Tuesday to third-degree assault.

Vince Chowdhury, 48, got angry when his wife and daughter didn't open the garage door quickly enough when he honked his car horn in their driveway on June 17, according to an arrest affidavit. The document said Chowdhury, a Jefferson County school board member, sat in the driveway several minutes honking his horn.

His wife and daughter apologized for making him wait but he thought the apology insincere so he slapped his daughter's face and then began to choke her with both hands when she backed away, the girl said.

Chowdhury said after his courtroom appearance Tuesday morning. "I feel that I should have used better judgment. And the three minutes of anger ... I felt that I could have done a better job of handling the situation."

For the misdemeanor, he was given a one-year deferred sentence and ordered to take anger management and parenting classes.

"The intent was to discipline my child who I felt was being disrespectful to her father. I know now there's a better way of handling the situation, I should have done that," Chowdhury said. "And I want to move forward with this...

Chowdhury, a Democrat, is running for the House District 22 seat ...

When asked if he planned to resign from the school board or quit the race for the House seat, Chowdhury replied that he is taking it one step at a time and will address those issues at a later date.

What a scumbag.
No doubt the Democrat Party will seek to have him get the VP nod on Obamas ticket.

Oh, NOW I know that choking my daughter was wrong...It just didn't occur to me before.

...got angry when his wife and daughter didn't open the garage door quickly enough...

And when his wife didn't serve the nan piping hot he hit her in the head with a large bowl of sag paneer.

This guy should be running a convenience store in Springfield.

I do not see why not. He has all the qualifications for a Democrat politician. If this had happened two years earlier he would have been a candidate for President.

(Vince Chowdhury, 48
I know now there's a better way of handling the situation, I should have done that,” Chowdhury said. )

Vince, you are 48. You work with children in a school. If you did not know there was a better way before this then you must be a lousy father and a crappy school official....

I'm taking a self defense class right now. We're currently learning techniques to get out of choke holds.

In this class we have a young woman, 25 or so, about 5'-10", and maybe 115 lbs. She can probably bench press 1-2 bowling balls, and that's all.

We also have an FBI employee, about 50, male, 6'-4", and 260-275 lbs. NOT a guy you'd want to be the bad guy in a dark alley at night. But he's really one of the good guys.

In this class, this young woman can break out of any choke hold this guy puts on her, in less than 2 seconds, sometimes less than 1 second. Every. Single. Time.

So can a couple of other young women, that are dwarfed by this guy, and 3 or 4 others almost as big.

And when you execute the break technique correctly, about 1/4 of a second after you break the grip of the two hands around your neck, you have the opportunity to slam either elbow directly into the face of the perp. The eye, the throat, the temple, the cheekbone, etc. Amazing stuff.

Every woman should learn this stuff. Krav Maga. Check it out.

Notice it is near the end of the article before the ‘journalist’ admits Chowder is a RAT.

Had He been a Republican, “Republican” would have been the first word of the article.

Am I blind or is there no mention of his party affiliation? If he was a Republican, it would be mentioned in the title of the article.
