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.

I use it for coyote hunting
I Bet This Dude Has all types of Military Grade Weapons. He won’t get Voted In. Hell Hes below 5%
And the 2nd Amendment was never about hunting . . .
Yea Chump, I says right there in the Constitution that gun ownership is all about deer hunting… U idiot ..
Hmm… I’ve shot plenty of deer with both an AR15 and with an AK. Not a problem. Worked great. The 2nd amendment is the RESET button for the Constitution, libturd!
You can use 223 in a 5.56 but not the other way around head space is different and 5.56 creates more pressure but for arguments sake they are basically the same
It ain’t the deer that are the problem. You, sir, are.
We dont need an ar-15 for hunting. We need them for killing government and their goons you condescending little p***k
I never net a democrat that could pour p**s out of a boot!!
actually, 5.56 nato, which is also the .223 rifle ammunition, is quite popular with hunters……clearly, O’Malley wouldn’t know a real hunter, if he walked up a kicked him in the$#%&!@*…….
