In the U.S. constitution there is something called the Supremacy Clause. It states that federal law is the law of the land,
IF the AG chooses to enforce these laws huh? I'm not an expert, but there are several states that have passed legislation that decriminalizes the use of pot. What is the difference, except for the 2nd amendment?

This came up a lot, right when the law was passed. There is no difference. The feds can bust anyone they want in the US for using or selling pot, just a matter of how much man power they choose to throw at the issue.
The LA law was and still is just a middle finger to the feds passed to help LA politicians look tough to the voters.

Virtually no difference. The federal law is still the bottom line as stated by the supremacy clause.
The only difference is a practical one because of the way the products are distributed and manufactured. Its a hell of a lot easier to shut down a bunch of manufacturing plants than it is to shut down every stoner growing weed in his parents basement.
