If somebody treats you like a nonperson one of two things is true. Either
1) You are a mere possession, and thus have a very low status or
2) the person treating you that way did something inappropriate.
Being offended and making a scene is a way to show that 2 is the case, and thus defend yourself against the decreased status.
