ICE agents chased out of Starbucks—citizens yell "We want coffee with no ice!"

"ICE agents separate families," people shout.

"You should be ashamed of yourself!"

"You should not be comfortable going anywhere—you should not be able to sleep at night."

Agents slink back to car where other agents wait for them—empty handed.

Crowd follows them the whole way yelling:
"Shame! Shame! Shame!"

Incident occurred at a Starbucks location in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey.

ICE Out of NJ doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

1. You go girls!! That's the way it's done.

[JMCKUSICK]

2. I am so fucking proud of these women!

How courageous.

[relogic]

3. More please

Maybe there’ll be a rally boycott. No ICE. Suspend our use of icy beverages as a protest. A second thought occurred- the savings in energy would be monumental, but in this heat dome I’d miss my frosty root beer.

[wnylib]

8. I wouldn't want businesses to suffer a boycott just

because their product name or components are the same as a despicable government murder gang.

[relogic]

11. Agreed

Just playing. It would be suicide this summer.

4. Looked to me like those ICE agents were weaponizing their SUV

[orangecrush]

5. Fuck ICE

[dawn5651]

6. well done ladies

[paleotn]

7. We ain't having it. Well done!

[hookaleft]

9. love that no one cussed

classy!

[a kennedy]

10. Oh my, they've gotten a lot more attractive eh??? THERY'RE SPIES!!!!!!

Forget the ones that show us who they are……gotta watch out for the “normal” ones. And those two guys just didn’t belong here. But others might belongs here. Just gotta watch out. Just waiting for the orange piece of shit………

[skypilot]

12. I might be missing something.

How could the women tell that these were ICE agents?

[littlemissmartypants]

13. They are probably locals.

[skypilot]

16. Still not getting it.

Locals who see what exactly? What pegs these guys as ICE rather than just a couple of non-local guys buying coffee? I'm not being argumentative, I'm genuinely curious.

[littlemissmartypants]

17. Did you watch the video? Let's start with that.❤️

[skypilot]

18. Yes. I DID watch the video...

...and I'm still not seeing what identities these two men as ICE agents. Also, it's Twitter (or X, or whatver) and I tend to question most things that I see there.

[littlemissmartypants]

19. It's good to question things. You don't have to agree with everything you see.

Did you do a search for yourself to try and verify the location?

[skypilot]

20. According to the X post...

...it's Mt.Laurel, New Jersey.

On edit: Approximate population 46,000.

Here's what my search turned up:

The town is home to an active ICE office located on Church Road. The presence of this federal facility distinguishes Mount Laurel as an administrative hub for immigration enforcement in the region, which may contribute to local awareness of ICE activities.

Back to my original assertion. They're locals.

[skypilot]

23. They're locals.

OK, that might explain it but when it comes to social media where people post stuff for "likes" I don't necessarily take a video at face value and whoever posted this one could have provided more context.

[littlemissmartypants]

24. It was all there. It just took a little ferreting. ❤️

[skypilot]

25. I am not conceding that you are right.

In my opinion it's not all there. This could still very well be something that was staged during a slow period at this Starbucks. I'm still questioning it. It's TWITTER.

[littlemissmartypants]

28. I call it Xitter. And if one doesn't look, they most certainly won't find.

Basing a final decision on a single parameter and forgoing further information while isolating that single parameter as an ultimate decision maker is something that I will probably never agree with.

I prefer a gestalt view.

Have a good evening.

[skypilot]

29. I'm not making a final/ultimate decision.

I'm questioning something that I see on a questionable site. You have a good evening also.

26. Mt. Laurel is a suburb of Philadelphia.

Very active democratic and liberal area. I imagine they knew. Look up the Mt Laurel doctrine. 👇

27. If this is pertinent to skypilot's concerns please share with them.

I'm not sure what you mean by "My Laurel" and have nothing further to contribute to the discussion. TY

[bamagal62]

31. Oops, typo!

Mt. Laurel

[Hassin Bin Sober]

21. They are probably following these guys. Good.

They may have the vehicles pegged.

Who knows.

[littlemissmartypants]

14. More and more...

I'm noticing it's women who are putting their bodies out front in the fight between fascists and democracy.

I love Feminist Justice.

[moonshinegnomie]

15. that should be standard procedure for ice thugs

every business should deny them service

[DBoon]

30. Someone or some group should be giving awards for this type of citizen action

[Volaris]

32. Wtf are those big strong alpha male manly men doing at a soyboy assed, dei starbucks to begin with?

The answer is they're probably ogling the trans baristia, but shouldn't they be drinking coffee grounds from the local bait n guns, LIKE REAL MEN DO?
Funny to me the only way to get a decent cup of coffee in JERSEY, is to NOT be a total asshole.
