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.

It’s about choices.
The AR is for the Bear running at you full speed while hunting deer. Or, it’s to protect our life, liberty and freedom from the Federal Government. I DARE you to try and take away our guns.
I have never heard a DemocRAT tell the truth.
We aren’t talking ‘Deer’, we are talking ‘government’. Got it?
I never meet a IGNORANT man like you. Sir.
Well good thing its not the bill of needs
It is are Right to have and Own a Gun it has been the law for hundreds of years you are only going to get people killed
Tell the ignorant fool that it isn’t what the rifle looks like that brings down the deer. Heck, many people own an AR-15 in a 223 caliber and most deer hunters won’t use a caliber that light. Not that you can’t hunt with an AR-15 and many do.
thats bc you have never met a real hunter–only those pussies on the left
What a Traitor, the 2nd Amendment hasn’t got a darn thing to do with Deer Hunting.
