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.

Nope, I keep my guns no matter what. I will not give up my guns, whether a republican, democrat or anything else wins. I have the right to do so, many Americans fought and died to give me that right. I will continue to fight to expand that right. I may however be more content to not have the government continually threatening and moving closer to a confiscation attempt.
It ain’t about hunting, dear. We need weapons to overthrow the government when they become too tyrannical.
Really, where in the second amendment does it state that the guns are for hunting!!! No where, it to protect the people from a tyrannical government..
