Probably because they're often not clearly identifiable as law enforcement, let alone ICE. ~~Can't~~ It's not good business to deny service just because they look the type that might be ICE.
Edit: People seem to be misunderstanding my intentions here. Businesses should totally refuse service to anyone clearly showing to be ICE or acting in a racist way. Fuck them.
I'm saying that it's not in their best interest to deny service to middle aged white guys / rednecks because they look like they might be in ICE. They'd go out of business.
If they're going to stereotype people to detain them there's nothing wrong with stereotyping them back. It won't kill them to pack their own lunch.
Define the type? Middle aged white dude? Maybe fat, maybe not. Maybe bald. Maybe not?
Most don’t have visible Nazis tats.
Groups of white, bearded, men in sunglasses and baseball caps, walking around puffed up with authority. It's either ICE or cops, either way, fuck em.
