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.

VOTE HIM OUT !!!!!!
Fine then, it’s for politicians who want to destroy the constitution. The REAL reason there is a 2nd Amendment.
Robert J Blakemore, you hit the nail right on the head..
IF you are seriously using the argument, “I’ve never met a self-respecting deer hunter that needed an AR-15 to down a deer…” line to question why we need to be allowed to chose buying one, then you completely missed the point of the Second Amendment. At this time, I would advise you to READ IT AGAIN! You see, having a desire to own any particular weapon, short of true military grade weapons (like fully-automatic weapons and missile launchers, for example) isn’t about needing anything for hunting. It’s all about self-protection!
For starters…… Use of Executive Orders can NEVER override the need for Congress to have to vote, followed by having a CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION in order to change the U.S. Constitution… to take away our rights to have guns for self-defense!! However, some states and cities have ignored that fact and convinced the general population of those areas to vote to give up their rights! It’s an idiocracy, but people don’t realize that!! Meanwhile, the “gun-free zones” that those anti-gun areas create end up with crime rates FAR higher than the rest of the country’s average!! Why?? It’s because CRIMINALS DO NOT CARE ABOUT GUN LAWS!!! but, if you were to tell people like the moron in this short video, who pleads directly with Hillary to basically, “PLEASE come take away our guns! We’re too stupid to be responsible with them!! … and we know you can’t get them away from the criminals, but try to save us anyway!!” ……..
If you want to argue a point of needing to get the guns off of the streets by taking them away from everyone, then you’re ignoring the statistics of guns vs. crime in both the US and the rest of the world! In the US, the crime rates (related to guns) have been slowly falling for at least the last three decades, and that’s with the rate of gun ownership slowly rising! But, more importantly, history shows that any area or city rendered a “gun-free zone” has a MUCH higher crime rate (especially with guns) than any other area where guns are allowed to be carried. On top of that, it seems that the higher the gun ownership rate in a given area, the lower the crime rates (but never quite reaching 0%, unfortunately, which is a fact of life around the whole world).
So, let’s face it… “Gun control” doesn’t work! … unless what you mean by those words is how you control your aim and make sure you hit your intended target(s), then gun control is a necessity! BUT, for the sake of THIS argument, we’re going on the “we don’t want guns” way of thinking, and why it will never work. Why not? It seems that criminals don’t care one bit what laws people like you write. If you force good people to give up their guns (which means their right to self-defense, in most cases), all you’re doing is creating a population of “easy targets” for the criminals!! … and also for terrorists… But, you also push your version of “gun control” on us because “guns kill people” while ignoring the FACT that no gun can hurt anyone unless one of those criminals or terrorists are holding, pointing, and squeezing the trigger of a gun. What’s the point, there? Guns are JUST TOOLS, because they have no capacity to do anything unless a person is handling them…
So… About AR-15’s? Why make them out to be such “evil weapons”? You want to call them “assault weapons”? Well, you would (once again) be in the wrong for doing so! True “assault weapons” are already illegal!! An AR-15 has only ONE mode for shooting, and it’s called “semi-automatic”… How that works is for each time you pull the trigger, ONE bullet is fired and a new one is chambered to wait for the NEXT time the trigger is pulled! AND, you MUST release the trigger between shots for it to work properly!! ANY/ALL “semi-automatic” weapons you find are exactly like that!! An M-16 has TWO modes for shooting. One mode is also “semi-automatic” while the other is “fully-automatic”. Since we already know the first mode, I’ll describe the other… How that works is squeezing the trigger starts shooting off ALL ammo in the gun’s magazine until either all are shot or you release the trigger!! That function is removed from ALL civilian-owned weapons as it is deemed to be a military-only option. Any civilians caught having a gun capable of going into a fully-automatic mode loses that weapon and can end up in jail for a while…
But, the anti-gun lunatics (such as yourself) don’t want you to know the difference between a real “assault weapon”, such as an M-16, and a “semi-automatic rifle”, so they’re putting out their ludicrous message in a way that’s intentionally confusing to most people! However, if you REALLY want to get down to the core point, ALL weapons can be “assault weapons”!! However, before you get a warm, squishy feeling about that little comment, you have to think for a moment (or two) about what can be a “weapon”….. Well, ANYTHING can be a weapon!!
Here’s a starter list of potential “weapons” that can be used to commit an assault on anyone:
— Hammers
— Screwdrivers
— Scissors
— Knives (all types, including butter knives)
— Spoons (depending on how they’re used)
— Chunks of wood (such as building lumber or tree branches)
— Ladders (because they’re big, heavy, and yet so easily moved)
— Nail guns (not just for construction, huh)
— Fingernail files (ooo… so dangerous)
— Books (when big enough and thrown hard enough or used like a club, especially if hard-cover)
— Cars (yep! cars kill lots of people every year… many more than guns of any type!)
— Brooms or broomsticks
— and MANY, MANY MORE!!
…… And then you have what I call “secondary killers” such as:
— Poison (the straight/obvious stuff)
— Medications (usually either overdoses, bad prescriptions, or something else that’s related)
— Binge-drinking (alcohol poisoning)
— Food (if given to someone allergic to it)
— and MANY, MANY MORE!
But, there’s a HUGE FLAW in the over-all reasoning going on………. People!! That’s right, people are being ignored in anything remotely related to “gun violence” any time the situation can be used to promote any level of “gun ban/restriction”… But, that’s a BIG problem once you learn to think about it all this way: ALL of the things I listed (and hundreds/thousands more) are merely tools or other objects that are only as good or bad as whoever is using/holding them!! In other words, whenever something happens and a gun is included, it’s the guy holding the gun who is at fault. It’s not the gun……. If the gun COULD be at fault, then it would be because it developed a consciousness and such!! Considering what guns are made of, I don’t see that happening anytime in the future………….
So, to end this overly-LONG statement about how people like you, the anti-gun bozo, need to basically shut the hell up about our guns because it’s easy to see you just don’t understand…. I’ll add this one last reminder. Your entire argument falls under the First Amendment in the part about people being allowed/afforded protection of or from the beliefs of others. That means if you “believe” people shouldn’t have certain guns, then you have a right to choose not to get one. It also means you DO NOT get to force other people to think as you do and deny them the chance to choose their own path in life…….. And, for your trying to do just that, you should go screw yourself!!
Oh… and one last thing to say to you………
The reason why I told you to READ what the Constitution says about the Second Amendment is so you can realize something important…… Like I said, it’s not about hunting…. It’s about making sure the people of the US are ALWAYS able to protect themselves against a “government gone mad” or if taken over by tyrannical lust for power and control over us….. If you were to take a long, serious look at our government today, at the approval ratings they have, and how they seem to no longer act for the people, then you should get it… IF you’re smart enough…………………….. That is to say, I’m actually surprised the people of the US have held back as long as they have and haven’t started a civil war to throw the whole lot of Congress, the Executive branch, most of the US Supreme Court members, as well as those in “special positions” (such as Speaker of the House) INTO PRISON FOR TREASON AGAINST THE U.S. CONSTITUTION!!!!
I know all of that is LOOOOOONG……….. But, feel free to share that with everyone you know!!!
Loud mouthed liberal dumbass.
Hunters gun choice is up to the hunter, NOT A BRAIN DEAD MORO POLITICO………BFUKINGARF…………….
its for people like you, not deer, its our duty, read it, its written in the preamble of the constitution,it was put their to instruct patriots to kill traitors like you.
