Read the text of the amendment and determine that for yourself. There's no way to tell what the Courts would say. But if you want to reduce gun violence, how would a class help? If the logic is that fewer people will own guns, only fewer law-abiding people would, so gun violence and threats of gun violence would increase. If the logic is that people are going to learn that violence is wrong from a class they have to take in order to get a gun, well I'm not sure how effective that would be.
