The Democrats just never get tired of trying to promote gun control to gun owners and failing miserably. Of course, this is because many of them simply can’t relate to them, as was made painfully apparent this weekend.
Speaking at the NBC/Youtube Democratic debate on Sunday, former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley defended his position on gun control by touting his relationship with gun owners. Attempting to defend his anti-Second Amendment record, O’Malley claimed that he’s, “never met a self-respecting deer hunter that needed an AR-15 to down a deer.”
Setting aside the unlikelihood of his claim that he regularly fraternizes with gun owners and deer hunters, O’Malley’s statement is stupefying. Yes, maybe deer hunters don’t need AR-15’s to shoot deer, but have you considered the possibility that maybe, just maybe, they need them to defend themselves?
To be fair, O’Malley, with his well-trained security escorts, probably doesn’t understand why anybody would need an AR-15 to protect themselves and their family. It should, however, keep him from opening his mouth on topics that he has little understanding of.

2nd Amendment has nothing to do with Deer hunting idiot!
The 2nd ammendment doesnt say “A right to bear arms for hunting deer” now does it fuckface?
What a idiot.
Trouble is most gun violence occurs in 25 inner city zip codes, not in the woods.
It is not the deer we are worried about dumbass
Screw job

People don’t need a Bently to go to the store for milk either. Who are you to judge as you are not an authority on what people need…
I’ve taken bucks with an AR15 with one shot each. Just because the magazine holds 30 rounds doesn’t mean you are compelled to fire them all.
