Possibly, but we're trying to stop people molesting children. The making of child porn is just an unpleasant side effect of a disgusting act. The issue is whether more child porn leads to more child molestation I suppose.
Imagine there was a fetish of people who got off on watching security tapes from bank robberies. Would we want to ban people from watching them? We'd want to stop the bank robberies itself, but what of the trade of tapes?
