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.

He never met a deer hunter at all then.
Who cares about self respect these days, certainly not politicians.
Bull sh—. This guy is so ignorant… Deer hunters have been around for years, many of the ones I know and love use the meat to supplement their diets. Probably a lot more healthy than the meat that comes from packing houses abroad. I just wonder what part of the country he lives in. Perhaps he has never had his car hit by one of those deer.
OMally a Ar15 is a rifle. The only difference is you don’t have to keep reloading it all the time. I have a rifle that is not an AR15 but will hold17 bullets so that you don’t have to keep reloading. The only reason you think an AR15 is more than a rifle is the way it is designed. The way a gun is shaped has nothing to do with how deadly it is. I also have a butchers knife in the drawer but it don’t kill people.
Its their damn RIGHT to have & use the GUN OF THEIR CHOICE !!
Maybe not a deer but it works really really well on ASSHOLES like you!
Never met anyone who needs you either!
Jordan R. Tisue Many of us DO care…its getting the rest of the sheep to wake up and make changes
To win in war you need to meet force with equal or greater force. That’s why they don’t want us to have as many rounds as they do. What does it matter how many a weapon holds?
It’s for fun, not for hunting. Never saw a golfer kill a deer with a golf club either. 2 nd amendment say we can have guns.
