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.

Maybe so, but I’ve never met someone with any understanding of the constitution who thinks the 2nd is about dear hunting.
I have AK and AR and neither are used for hunting but to protect my family.
Who is this guy again?
All the bitching about “assault weapons” by these people who are guarded by “assault weapons”, seems legit to me! LMAO what a bunch of lying pansies.
Fyi before you reply read this AR =ARMA LITE thanks liberal dumbass move on now.
So what?
its my right. I don’t even use my AR to hunt. I practice with it with 30 round mags. just to have for treason and terrorist.
Turn YOUR guns in O’Malley, use your slingshot!
Hey O’Malley, please just answer this one question for me, pretty please. How are all those ridiculous gun control laws that you put in effect in Maryland working???
how about for self defence
