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.

WHAT THE HELL DIFFERANCE DOES IT MAKE,,,,,,ITS UP TO THE HUNTER ON WHAT HE WANTS TO USE,,,,,
We made need them to take down a tyrannical government.
Probably never met a deer hunter!
I killed a coyote with my ar15 the other nite, wounded it then had to track it down to finish it off, had it been my 06, or 308 it would have been down on the first shot.
.223 isn’t even adequate for taking down large game. He’s a pandering moron.
The AR platform is an excellent rifle for hunting, you use it to hunt down people, however IMHO, i feel it’s best used for hunting varmints.
POS,SOB, he would not know what a deer hunter is…
what does deer hunting have to do with the 2nd amendment,
This guy is an idiot. The second amendment doesn’t have anything to do with hunting.
Shut up…your words mean nothing!!! You are just a dumbass in a suit that will never be elected. Go$#%&!@*in a corner
