I just thought it would be funny to see the reaction of the criminals - they know the rules (in many cases) better than the police do.
If the cops could use thermal imaging (and other assorted wavelengths), it is easy (despite what other users have said) to detect grow ops. Any GIS class could develop their own system to do this effectively, unfortunately our wimpy system currently does not allow this.

All of that is a give-in. I'm talking about a home that isn't a suspected grow-op by the police. If you call in suspicious activity for a house that isn't in their list of potential grow-ops then at the most they would send a unit over to appease the neighborhood. And by "at most" I mean from a physical stand point. I'm sure an investigation would be pending. If it's a house they already are watching, then of course they won't walk up to the door. I suppose I wasn't clear enough in my original post. The message I was getting across is; it's ok to phone in a suspicious house. They won't burst in through the front door and ruin dinner. They'll investigate as appropriate.
I'm not entirely sure why you couldn't have put that post in place of the "lol" though. Time constraint?
