Sooooo can you set up a meth lab, then add yourself to the list?

It literally says in the article that they will not ignore calls to locations on the list and they will only keep the information in mind when responding.

Aware of that, however I don't see how it can work in any situation to be honest.

A ) I have an illegal thing in my house, but I register for "please dont shoot me etc". Party B calls the police, door is still likely to be kicked in.

And at what point does it become meaningless if the majority of residential addresses are on the list?
