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.

Hey dumbass. I own several rifles, shotguns and handguns for taking deer. None of them are an AR15. I own AR15s for other purposes; target shooting, varmint hunting, self defense and most importantly because I have the right to and I want to. Your opinion of what I need means absolutely nothing to me.
I am willing to bet, sir, you have a lot of things that you don’t need, but you still buy them. If you really knew anything about hunting, especially out west (hunting the canyons) you would understand that the more rugged the gun, the better. But then, you are a liberal !
When did you ever meet a self respecting Democrat since Harry Truman ? Write it down ! It was a day of miracles !!
Daniel Coneybeer slip and fall while hunting in a canyon and when you pick up your beautiful Remington, it is back to the range to true it up. Drop a 15 or an AK and just pick it up and dust it off. Just so you know, I also have a 300 Weatherby. I also stalk my deer and don’t sit in a blind waiting for them to come to me.
The second amendment was not made for hunting!!!
I don’t remember the constitution saying what. Arms we have the right. To have it doesn’t say you can have a shotgun but not a rifle does it
Hey o malley you idiot, the second amendment was meant just for hunting, or home defense, but incase of our government becoming tyrannical ,that we can defend ourselves against it.
The Second Amendment has absolutely nothing to do with deer hunting. Screw you O’Malley.
like so many things, shot placement is the ticket. I’ve shot dozens of deer, a few elk, and damn near everything except bears with a .223.
Fool.
