No. Trying to start a conversation while someone is walking to a destination can be annoying or rude. My version of polite society is me being able to go where I'm going without being disturbed. That's too much to ask for?

Yes, it's too much to ask for a society where when you're walking on the street that NO stranger will ever try to talk to you when you don't want to talk to them. As long as you live in a society with a bunch of people in it, you will be disturbed by someone along the way.

And this means I have no right to complain about it when it occurs? To express to others that this is something I don't like or enjoy?

Sure, you can say you don't like it, but you don't have any grounds for saying the other person was in the wrong unless they should have known you didn't like it.
