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 right, but it’s our constitutional right
I did not know that you were that stupid, Mr. O’ Malley, and a fool about rifles. An AR 15 would make a good deer hunting rifle as a semiautomatic service rifle.
I do not deer hunt but I know a little about fire arms and I do not see an AR-15 as over kill for hunting. If anything it may be a little less than desirable for deer hunting especially where a brush gun is needed. But if someone uses an AR-15 that should not be a problem. Sounds like O’Malley is talking about something he knows nothing about. That is typical for politicians.
The AR 15 was never meant for deer hunting, though it has been used for such. Our founders meant it to be a deterrent to politicians who forget who the boss is. This was the clear intent of the founders/framers. This is settled fact O’mally. They wanted us to have the premier military weapon of the time, to protect us from you!
But I do know many that need them to take down a tyrant government.
Good thing I don’t hunt deer
Keep your hands off our guns
I never met a self respecting polition
Amen
A deer hunter doesn’t need a AR 15 for deer hunting neither does a illegal alien need one for living in this country this is our country not theirs.
