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.

the statement is so stupid…..yes you can use a AR-15 or a tactical rifle to hunt with…it is a rifle made for distance shots…in fact it is a better designed rifle for durability, accuracy….so why would you not want to use this rifle instead of an old single shot rifle…?
they need one for dear politicians===========
What the$#%&!@*does that have to do with anything
1st off have you ever shot anything with an AR-15? 2nd do you understand how useful an AR-15 can be if you miss the first shot compared to a bolt action? 3rd the second amendment was intended to makes sure the people had a way to protect they rights if the government did. Our tights ate not given to us by the government they are protected. When a government does not protect our rights it is our responsibility to insure that the government do it job or abolish the government.
What an idiot!
Dumb as a rock
It’s a choice
I never met a self respecting libtard
you are one dumb son of a$#%&!@*the 2nd A is not about hunting it is about protecting ourselves from dickheads like you and we will
Next thing you know he’ll say, “I’ve never met a Republican onon-democrat that ever said anything nice”…and then ZAP! There goes your 1st amendment… and the rest will fall in line. That’s how it works.
