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.

No but it keeps a TYRANT that tries to take away my 2nd amendment rights from me nervous.
he doesn’t get out much
He is correct AAR 15 is a 223 caliber A little on the small side for a big game. A ar 10 would be much more efficient as it comes in a 308 caliber
O’Malley….drop DEAD. Take Joy Behar, Rosie and Whoopig on a plane with you to Iraq. Make yourself useful.
Willingly ignorant
i dont hunt but i think most deer hunters use more powerful guns than ar15.
Just a Liberal Freak wanting America to be Defenseless. Why?
It wont be long before they start calling a bolt action rifle with a scope a “sniper rifle”
anyone that voted for you has no self respect
I’ve never meet a Self-Respecting Left-wing nut-job who has actually UNDERSTOOD the US CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS in its ENTIRETY!
