From the article:

"News4's Mark Segraves went to the same restaurant on Thursday and sat in the store for more than 20 minutes using the Wi-Fi without being asked to leave. An employee at the store told Segraves he was not required to buy anything. However, a new sign in the store says that customers are required to buy something to sit inside."

Seems there is some selective enforcement of the rule that you have to buy something to use the Wi-fi there.

Correction: if you want to hang out there, be white.

This location is near the homeless day shelter. I’ve seen homeless men out around/in this store. The owner was obviously associating the drug addicted panhandling crowd (usually Caucasian in this area) when she approached this woman. Which somehow makes the story that much worse. I have lived here for 20 plus years and this woman, even if dressed “down” for the day doesn’t fit the typical Lamb center patron. Just racist garbage. I for one will not set foot in that store ever again. If she hadn’t mentioned the safety of the other customers I might have given her a pass... but somehow just being of color makes you dangerous.

The last time I was there a homeless looking white lady sat at one of the four seater comfy couch areas with a pile of papers... mumbling incoherently... and no one said a word to her. She had nothing in front of her, not an empty coffee cup, not even a donut crumb. She was settled in for the long haul. Her white shirt we made her less threatening i suppose. Maybe open opioid addiction makes one less threatening.
