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.

The 2nd amendment was intended to take down tyrant government. In today’s terms the democRAT party!
And I will bet he never saw a group of combat elite deer coming for his community and their weapons either………… Nor a group of thugs doing a drive-by with guns blazing. What an idiot to say something like that
Its not about deer hunting .
I’m from Maryland this is our village idiot
I might not have one but I have friends that do. They bought them for protection especially from a tyrannical government like Obamas. I’m getting one as we’ll especially the way things are going now days. Isis member’s hiding amongst the refugees is a good reason too.
I’m willing to bet that no self-respecting person has ever been associated with this crook.
The 2nd amendment doesn’t say anything about need.
Jonathan D. Harrison I have poor typing skills.
Push and poke and prod until you think you can take away that with which a tyrannical government will be thrown down with. Make the$#%&!@*announcement about the passage of Nibiru approaching and let the people prepare. Your already bunkered up O’Malley why can’t the people be prepared? Ignorant p***k.
I wonder if O’Malley would consider a smaller income from those gun toter tax paying self respecting deer hunters . I didn’t think so he wants the largest income possible so why should he expect the deer hunters to settle for less?
