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.

Not for deer self protection
Duchebag
Red Herring. Who said firearms ownership was limited to deer hunting
.338
Stupid idiot
Funny, I don’t even hunt deer with my AR…
No, but we need them to protect ourselves from idiots like you trying to round us all up and to do as you please…
I don’t know if we need them for deer , or burglars, but some day we will need them , when the thugs from Washington come to take our rights away
Smaller arms? AR-15 is cal .223, quite small. Most deer hunters here use, .308 cal. It’s always AR this AK that. Yet none of these fools really know what they mean. Quick note AR-ARMALITE, AK- Anatoli Kalashnikov. Not assault rifle or some other made up$#%&!@*
The second amendment is not about hunting you dipshit politician, its about defending ourselves,our loved ones and our country against corrupt idiots like you !!
