"Police in the city of New York arrest 140 people per day for marijuana possession. Arresting 170 people at once would barely cause a hitch in their system."

Sorry, but this is my area of expertise. Not yours. Trust me when I say that if 170 people are locked up at one time in one area, it causes many issues.

Sorry, but you do not appear to HAVE an “area of expertise”.

And I notice you changed your claim from “massive backlog” to “many issues”...
