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.

Another political idiot, doesn’t qualify to be a pop sickle stick
Its not about deer hunting, you IDIOT!
It’s not about hunting and never has been$#%&!@*clown.
I don’t think I have to listen to anyone who would align themselves with one of the most unrespectable parties in the history of the world speaking about self respect.
Nicholas Leon I wasn’t sure what you meant when you said by weight 10lbs or less.
Jeramiah Shastid guns need to weigh 10 pounds or less. That’s sling, bipod and largest clip I can fit. Which is 20rds. This way I can smoke a pack of those wolves!
Nicholas Leon thanks I guess my m1a would not be legal for hunting there. Damn the luck it is deadly accurate to 800 plus yards.
Another liberal moron. Big Game laws everywhere restrict the capacity of the firearm used to five to ten rounds. Further, the AR-15 is not a legal round for hunting deer in many states because of its small caliber (.223 or 5.56 x 45). O’Malley is pandering to the uninformed, low information voters who choose not to educate themselves.
Yep. It was called a puckette gun I believe.
Don’t need one but like to use one and should have that right!!!!
