I saw him a few weeks later about the same time and he waved at me. I
think I taught the little gnatsie a lesson.

The cop was right, you were wrong - with that ....."attitude".

Maybe I should have put in the initial details. I was walking east
parallel to the main road. The cruiser was headed west. At the
turnoff to the bowling alley the cruiser suddenly turned into the
bowling alley parking lot, which is lit up like Christmas, and gunned
the engine, doing a 180 and speeding toward me from behind. The
cruiser pulled right in front of me, blocking my path and putting me
in a fight or flight mode. If you've ever had a large motor vehicle
threaten you right out of the blue you know the feeling. If you
haven't then you're unusually lucky. Of course, one can't always
recite all the details which accurately portray an occurrence, so you
try to do it the best you can. But the second thing the officer did
to antagonize was to shine a bright spotlight into my face.

Now I may come back and read in this thread but won't get into a fuss
about anything already said here. I am in my sixties and have had
many experiences with law officers, most of them good. This one just
happened to be acting like a thug.
