If you want to hang out or use the restroom at Starbucks, you’re going to have to buy something.

Starbucks on Monday said it was reversing a policy that invited everyone into its stores. A new code of conduct – which will be posted in all company-owned North American stores – also bans discrimination or harassment, consumption of outside alcohol, smoking, vaping, drug use and panhandling.

Starbucks spokesperson Jaci Anderson said the new rules are designed to help prioritize paying customers. Anderson said most other retailers already have similar rules.

    You won’t show them the front cover of a Playboy?

    They’re too young to see this?

    Do you also refuse to take them to a swimming pool or beach?

        By your comments you probably think it’s okay to take kids to church or have faith in a magic sky daddy. These are much more harmful and fake things

            No. Those would be the dumbasses who believe in a fairy sky daddy because Christian’s are so used to accepting fantasy as reality without evidence they’re more gullible to everything
