Can't log onto open WiFi

[Double Tap]

Galaxy S5 on marshmallow unlocked TM on Cricket. When I try to use an open WiFi I get a message saying that this network is not secure and can't log on. I don't care if the network is not secure because as soon as I would connect I would use a VPN and only surf the internet for news sites and not do anything else.

How can I get to connect to the network?
