Perhaps I'm naive but based on MY life experience, I can't imagine a CPS interaction where a gun would be pulled on someone whose actions did not warrant it.
Well in one encounter I was in a warehouse with a friend, owned by friends dad, that we opened by key and disabled the alarm with the code. They decided it looked like a burglary and came in hard with guns up yelling angrily.

There's nothing like having someone point a gun at your face and yell at you at the same time. We were not charged and were left at the scene as we had done nothing wrong/illegal. So yeah, I get in your experience these things don't happen, but in my experience they clearly do.
