Yup it does look like a pissing match. Its not hard to get around shutting off the power. Its not hard to have secret parties. People have been using illegal drugs for decades, despite the massive punishment that comes with getting caught - punishment that is far worse than illegally shutting off power. So why would this actual work?

It's actually a little easier to notice and cut off power to a large conspicuous party than it is to notice drug deals are going down to do busts. It's not like all the dealers are screaming YEAH WE LIKE METH and dancing under a stream of cocaine with 20 other people clapping their hands while Billy does a kegstand.

And the action taken to shut down someone's power is to call the power company and tell them to do some clicky clacks on a keyboard.

So definitely an apples and oranges comparison. That said, it probably would be a pissing match ultimately as that person said.
