Not a good comparison.
The fact I can't own a firearm has no impact on my other civil rights. Police can't search my house for no reason etc.
The bottom line is that there is no reason for people in urban centres here to own a firearm. You do not need a firearm for protection in Australia. Farmers, however, need them for various reasons.
