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.

Obviously, you are not looking hard enough :- Actually, I have several family members that regularly use similar firearms for target practice. Nothing wrong with that.
And any self respecting politicians need armed body guards— js
Well the deer are not talking.
Go home hippie
DON’T TREAD ON ME!!!
I used a .223, which is an AR-15 caliber, but a bolt action, no recoil very accurate to 300 meters and shot a few deer, they dropped immediately! Hydra-static shock!
Ideal for me, didn’t realize they made the 15 in anything but the 5.56mm
He’s an idiot, and what does that have to do with the 2nd amendment?
Ignorance is bliss and this idiot is all kinds of blissful
