Looking at the world and deciding where to go. Having no one that tells you what to do and nothing that holds you back from not doing it.
Wherever you go on the planet, there will be people seeing a human being in you. Welcoming you and making a son, a brother, a father, a lover, a friend out of you.
There will also be a government to remind you you don't belong.

Police certainly may show up after being a victim of a crime, but being protected from crimes seems a harder case to make without resorting to unfalsifiable claims (sort of like those put forth by defenders of patent law).
