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.

It was never about hunting you$#%&!@*clown
My coyote weapon
so this the OTHER GUY running for the dem nomination….who knew
Semi auto just like an AR15 and fires the exact same .223 ammunition. (just not black and as scary looking to those folks that are clueless).
ATTENTION LIBERALS: The 2nd amendment has NOTHING to do with deer hunting. It is about the citizens being able to defend themselves from an out of control, corrupt government. Which seems to be exactly where we are headed. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!
Did he ever read the constitution? Doesn’t say anything about hunting! Man, I hate stupid!
the level of in your face blind absurdity goes beyond incomprehensible!
And here in Wyoming you can use a .223 round for deer hunting and a good hunter only needs 1 round. But yes an AR-15 does make an excellent home and personal defense weapon. Why does law enforcement need them to?
It ain’t about hunting retard, it’s about busting your$#%&!@*when you get out of control. But you’re sorta right…. I can bust your$#%&!@*with a single shot .22 and reload before you can whistle Dixie. 😉
BTW the average citizens muskets had rifled barrels. Washington’s army had the less accurate smooth bore muskets. A small group of soldiers in the continental army had blunderbus shotguns. Check history antigunners
