Anyone seen any recent DC crime stats since Heller?

Ever since the SCOTUS Heller case I've been dying to find up updated crime stats in the area. I wasn't able to readily pull up anything on google tonight. Has anyone else looked into this? Or is it too soon to expect any measurable difference?

It won't matter, I bet you there are few enough legal gun owners you can count them on your hands.

Gun sales increases was one of the stats I was hoping to find. Aside from that the theory being criminals would be less likely to strike in an area that isn't a "gun free zone".

Crime statistics are done on an annual basis, so they probably aren't out since the Heller decision, and would include a large portion or time pre-Heller, as well. You'll have to wait another year to get a full year of crime statistics that are post-Heller.

Then you get into the meat of the arguments. When did the Heller decision impact legal gun ownership in DC? How long before DC citizens have usable home- and self- defense firearms available to them to impact the crime stats? Will there be any impact by the Heller decision before any counter-impact by the BamBam administration's policies?

They increased an infinite percent, going from 0 to 1 sale a year is an infinite percent, with that said, everything is funneled through one FFL, so it's not going to be any amount enough to actually make a difference.
