    I noticed 5 cop cars outside my house with cops in my front and back yard. When I stepped outside I was directed to walk backwards towards them at gunpoint.

    It was about 10 degrees F outside when they cuffed me and said they arrived to investigate a domestic violence report. I was wearing shorts and rubber boots. I had been asleep on the couch, and my gf was showering.

    I was fucking shivering by the time my gf came outside and absolutely let them have it for detaining me for having done nothing. They discovered they came to the wrong address.

    The cops proceeded to tell us they still needed to search our house to be sure. My lovely gf let them have it. Told them they were not allowed in and to uncuff me before I froze to death.

    They left without an apology. I fucking hate them. She felt unsafe in our home for a looong while after.
