Could you imagine a local cop letting a guy driving a car loaded with drugs go free because it's "the DEA's job to enforce drug laws"?

Isn't that how it works in states where medical marijuana is legal though? The local cops don't interfere, only the federal guys enforce the federal laws.
So even though it's a state law, I guess the question is whether states even have the jurisdiction to deal with immigration issues.
