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.

Your not taking my guns ever Nazis
Michael J Kurtzweil I am very clear on that point! I watched a news story in California where they showed a Ruger 10/22 and called it an AR 15.
Gee, butt munchers, guess who we are really prepared to deal with?
The fact that the people you were elected to serve want AR15s is all you need to know. If you can’t handle that find a new Job. Stop trying to tell your boss he don’t need a AR115. That is not you job.
I thought we were done with this liberal knucklehead. Presently Maryland is trying to undo the damage, he did, while he was governor of Maryland.
If that is the case… Why do Politicians require Limousines and armed security to drive from place to place, when an old Yugo would accomplish the same thin?
David Hemmer you can buy an AR 10 or maybe they call it AR 30, in 270 Winchester from Armalite or have your local Gunshop order it for you.
A lot more fun than a shotgun
Corey Lee Clark that is correct. The AR 15 platform is not always but generally 223. The AR 10 and AR 30 platforms are for the larger calibers.
