Dux,
For the sake of argument, if data and studies supporting your position is present, then by all means present it. I'm open minded and it would be informative.
However, I strongly doubt a ban will somehow greatly reduce the supply that does find its way in to those who want it ("the streets!"). We ban drugs--which paradoxically causes the profit margins to rise, thereby inadvertently creating an incentive for taking the risk to run drugs. First, see my arguments about Mexico. Guns are rampant there despite a ban. Second, think about the prohibition, bans there were of no use to those who wanted to drink (and like illicit drugs now, were manufactured by those who saw an ability to make a profit).
However, I will agree with you on the child-lock. So long as they're not retardedly manufactured to the point where I'd have to fumble with it in the dark when I need the weapon. Ardent 2A supporters will disagree with me there, but to each their own I guess.
