You have a right to not have violence initiated against you (e.g. to not be murdered in your sleep). In order to keep this right, you just can't initiate force against someone else. Do you have a right to a "safe and secure society"? I'm not really sure precisely what that is or how it is achieved, but that sounds an awful lot like a privilege. For example, you most certainly do not have the right to be guarded in your sleep by armed guards. Nor do we all possess the right to be guarded in our sleep by armed guards. |

This is a right of outcome. The outcome of not having violence committed against your person or property.
Rights of outcome vs rights of opportunity are a false dichotomy. All rights are a right for some specific outcome and are considered violated when that outcome does not occur.
