Post Heller until February 4th before the training requirement the number of firearms registered in the District was 500.
After the training requirement of four hours class and one hour range time (there are no gun ranges in the District) on about February 4th 2009, the number of firearms registered in the District is 50.
The intent of the training requirement was to limit the number of law abiding people capable of owning a firearm....and it worked.
The District by setting the training requirement on it's residents in order for them to excersise their civil right, they have been denying the right to some. This is no different than the testy they used to make the blacks in the South take before they could vote thereby disenfranchising a class of people and denying their civil right who had trouble reading or trouble with tests.
