It's free to consult an attorney and get a couple business cards to hand out at those moments. Chances are that you will be treated much more politely. It's generally the law of the jungle with police. You can't out-force them, but you can out-think them, and out-threaten them, and if you make them afraid of you then they will leave you alone.
I used to practice kendo outside my house after work at night. Usually about 3 in the morning. The first encounter I had with the police was with them trespassing on my private property, with guns out, sneaking up on me! They were totally in the wrong, at least according to my lawyer. Since they were polite, I responded in kind. I probably made their night, they were bored silly and I gave them some excitement. I think most cops are adrenaline junkeys. The best thing is to be calm and deliberate with them.
I had another encounter where the officer was hassling a friend of mine and had refused to give out his badge number. I told him I was going to file charges for harassment and whatever else my attorney could come up with. That cop avoids me now (small town).
Unfortunately, I've found that most police don't know the laws. Especially the older ones. If you know the laws, then you can protect yourself from being hassled by some inbred jed. For some reason law enforcement tends to attract rigid thinkers.
