Here's my take on this...
Of course women (and anyone) else should be able to wear whatever they want, but I don't think that's what the cop was saying. He wasn't saying no one can dress slutty. He was saying to be smart about how they dress.
Can a skinhead wear a swasticka on his shirt while strolling through Compton or Harlem? Sure, he has every right to do so. Does that make it a smart idea? No, of course not, because of the negative attention it will bring him.
Can I walk around Vegas flashing hundred dollar bills at anyone that looks my way? Sure. Will I end up getting mugged? Probably.
Same principle applies to slutty dressed women.
We can't prevent all criminals from committing all crimes at all times, but we can take personal precautions to descrease the odds that we become one of their victims. I get the sense that this was what the cop was trying to say.
