how on earth can it be unconstitutional when the laws is the law and needs to be enforced?

LOTS of laws can be struck down as unconstitutional. It all has to do with authority. In this case, my guess that it might very well be so, since according to the federal constitution, the job of the federal government is mediating between the states and dealing with foreign governments. States are not supposed to deal directly with foreign governments.

Are they not supposed to deal with persons within their own state borders? LOL

Why do you assume the State will set up an immigration office and deport offendors themselves rather than just hand over the illegals to the Feds? Mark
