Try having cops, tell you they going to take off their badge and gun and beat the crude out you in a alley. Cops are just gangsters with a badge. In my opinion
Did you do anything about this incident?
And surely you can't label all police as gangsters because of the actions of a few?

You said it yourself... prostitution is prevelant there, so you should be glad that the police are out and watching for "johns" trying to pick women up.
You did nothing wrong and obviously wasn't arrested, so what?
Because people have the right not to be harassed.
Because walking around your own neighborhood is not suspicious.
Because if I have done nothing wrong, I shouldn't be expected to have to have to give the police an explanation on what I am up to.
Because blurring the line of reasonable suspicion is a hair width from blurring the line of presumed innocent and presumed guilty.
Because people like you lack a knowledge of history, and the lessons learned from it.

Personally, I much prefer the police to question and be nosey than to ignore and assume the best. Just my opinon.
At this point I was pretty outraged to be accused of that on the basis of what?
I had done nothing more than walked through a certain part of town. Who the hell are they to pass judgement on me
I went home and felt really low that I had been branded a pervert / sex offender or whatever
