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.

The 2nd Amendment had nothing to do with deer hunting.
Spot on. …
The ignorance of politicians and law makers!!! They can’t grasp that the AR platform IS what is used for many of today’s hunting rifles. I have yet to see someone proposing a new gun law that actually knew anything about guns.
what is his point? He must be stupid.
guess he never hunted in the dakotas or montana or has he ever hunted at all?
That’s because you’re an idiot
Guess you don’t get out much.
When will these morons understand it’s not about rights for Hunters..
It’s not about hunting .
Liberalism is a dangerous mental disorder.
And I have, NEVER MET A SELF-RESPECTING, POLITICIAN THAT NEED TO, AVOID ALL, ILLEGAL, UNETHICAL, AND IMMORAL, CAMPAIGN PROMISES!!!!! CLEAN YOUR OWN, HOUSE. ……SIR,LEAVE OUR “RIGHTS”ALONE! !
