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 was never about hunting. So let’s dispense with that stupid fallacy. It’s not deer our forefathers were concerned about. It was the over-reach of government.
Moron Alert
The level of stupidity “ruling” this country mind boggling!
The second amendment is not about hunting nor crime but about a peoples right to protect themselves from tyrannical government. Stop the stupidity and stop Obama’s gun grab
The second amendment makes no mention of hunting. Our founders feared that having the people disarmed would facilitate a tyranacal government. Read the personal notes of Mason, Jefferson, Franklyn, et al.
HEY LOSER THE SECOND AMMENDMENT IS THERE TO PROTECT US AGAINST$#%&!@*S LIKE YOU!
Another$#%&!@*clown
The 2nd Amendment has NOTHING to say about killing deer, but everything to say about protecting ourselves against a takeover of America from ENEMIES WITHIN and OUTSIDE our borders. Anyone who is trying to take away our RIGHT to protect ourselves, means us HARM. They are the ones our forefathers warned us about when they wrote the Constitution.
But then bet that (he among them) has never met a self respecting politician either.
O’Malley is a$#%&!@* he would know a real working class man or woman if he met them on the street, so glad he is no longer governor of Maryland.
