Registering Firearms

Hi neighbours :) I have a quandary to present.
As examples; we register our cars and complete change of ownership paperwork when we sell them. We register our houses and properties when we complete ownership papers/information etc We register our dogs and if they are rehomed the new caregiver is required to register them at their property and under their own names. It has/is being suggested we register our cats and their are council initiated restraints on how many we can have in some areas.
But now that there is an act passed into law that people are required to register their guns there is a big hoo-hah about freedoms of ownership and some politicians is getting in on the act declaring they will repeal this law if they gain power.
I would ask, what makes gun ownership so special that the guns should not be tracked individually as a means of containing the possibility of abuse of their use?
Much the same as 'dangerous' dogs are restricted, contained and monitored...shouldn't the same be happening with weapons such as guns which are equally able to main and kill?
Just asking :)
