He should have kept this information to himself…
Mayor Pete Buttigieg expressed his dissatisfaction with the concept of carrying a gun after serving in Afghanistan.
“Over time, I realized having a gun made me feel smaller, not bigger,” he said during a conversation about guns with a BuzzFeed reporter as part of his bus tour in Iowa.
The mayor was asked about his feelings on guns as a veteran who served in Afghanistan in the Navy Reserves but apparently did not engage in combat.
Earlier in September, Buttigieg criticized men who had their “sense of manhood wrapped up in owning a gun.”
“[I]f it gets to where your sense of manhood is wrapped up in owning a gun, I think that’s where our culture is on the wrong track,” Buttigieg said in an interview with TMZ Live.
Buttigieg has expressed support for an “assault weapons” ban on some semi-automatic rifles but has resisted the more aggressive promise from Beto O’Rourke to take away AR-15s and AK-47s from gun owners with a nationwide mandatory buyback program.
In August, the South Bend mayor called for a new ban on semi-automatic “assault weapon” rifles and a ban on any ammunition magazines over ten rounds.
“As a veteran, I know that military-grade weapons have no place in our neighborhoods,” he wrote.
Although he disagreed with O’Rourke’s approach, he said that Democrats should work to pass whatever they could on gun control.
“When even this President and even Mitch McConnell are at least pretending to be open to reforms, we know that we have a moment on our hands,” Buttigieg said in an interview with CNN. “Let’s make the most of it and get these things done.”
“Well, shit, that is not enough,” O’Rourke responded to Buttigieg, calling it a “life and death” issue.

His manhood is usually shoved up another guys butt. What a freak show these people are
No, queer. We get our manhood from being married to a woman. And we don’t need a gun to feel big. I’m sure you feel small whether you’re holding a gun or your dick since you like to suck others.
This clown never saw combat ,doesn’t know anything about rifles .Thereis no such thing as a fully automatic semi automatic !! .AR-15 and AK 47 ( civilian ) are not “weapons of war ”
They look like the standard M-16 ,M-16 A 4 .The functionality is completely different ,cosmetically ,
they are similar .The military would never use these rifles as they are unsuitable for combat .
Attention-getting title! I thought the something small he was holding was part of his anatomy!
This is my rifle, this is my gun and Peter B. feels small! Ha, ha, ha! They should have given him a grenade with the pin pulled out and that would have made him much bigger after the explosion!
Why is it that when all of their other arguments fail (as they nearly always do) the hoplophobes end up resorting to the guns are compensation for manhood argument? It seems like they have an unhealthy obsession – maybe Freud could help them out.
The turd tamper is as misguided as most of his fellow candidates.
it is nuts like him that we have to talk about how guns make you feel, they are a tool, they have a use, and Democrats what to that away our tools, guns only being one of them, never trust a Democrat………….
The Democrats are just like the Islamics, they will lie, cheat or steal to ge their way or achieve their goal. All the Democrats want for this nation is failure and destruction.
