How ironic, this question goes directly to the purpose of the SECOND AMMENDMENT. And as the old saying goes, use it or lose it.

You're right, but short of taking up arms (while keeping that, as always, as an option) how do we convince this President to correct the errors in this brief?

Unless they would file an amici brief for Heller, supporting the DC Circuit's ruling, it's too late, briefs for the petitioner, that is DC, are closed. They aren't going to do that, because as they admit in their brief, that would be the thread that once pulled would lead to the striking down of almost all federal gun control laws, save perhaps "felon in possession" and even more likely bans on carry in federal buildings, military bases, etc, but not National Parks.
