Because you understand the meaning of the word "illegal".

You actually can't sell someone a car if they don't have a drivers licence. The transfer of ownership won't work, and the car will still be your responsibility.

I'm not arguing gun bans in this thread. I'm arguing that a lack of gun control isn't as effective as actually stopping criminals from getting guns. I'm not interested in having a trans-thread argument.

What kind of power is a knife or bat compared to a gun? As I stated before, a drive by kniffing would be useless. Anyone with a taser or pepperspray should be able to properly disable a potential criminal without having to be worried about getting shot.
Guns are the means by which they are powerful.
