Maybe those trigger locks aren't the answer:

Those vaunted trigger locks don?t prevent anything. In a March 23 NBC Nightly News story on a 12-year-old boy who held his class in Lisbon, Ohio at gunpoint, but gave the loaded gun to a teacher before hurting anyone, Jim Avila pointed out:

"His father says the gun was stored safely with a trigger lock, but police say the boy found the key."

Shocking. Trigger locks won?t prevent the misuse of guns. Let?s see how many other news stories note this fact about the Ohio incident.

Maybe we need mandatory safes for the storage of keys to trigger locks. -- Brent Baker
