Daniel: It will keep me off the streets. When it gets dark, I head in. I don’t want to be out amongst the criminals anyway. You don’t need to be out on the streets at night. You need to be home taking care of your business and your families. I was raised on a farm. By 8 o’clock, we was in the bed. You should be able to do anything you want to do in the daylight anyway. I like it because it’s for the kids. They’re out early in the morning catching the bus for school.

Tracie: It messes up my schedule. Your body has to adapt to it and mine usually takes awhile to adapt when it comes to what time I’m up, what time I go to bed. I’ll probably have to stay up an extra hour at night just because. At the store I work at, we close at 8:30 during the week and now it’s going to be a whole lot darker. That’s not good for females when we’re walking out to our cars on the street. People usually commit their crimes when it’s dark.

Angela: Daylight-savings time is fake. We need to go back to the real time. Time is not artificial. Time is a device that was created by humans to follow the movement of the Earth and the sun and the hours of the days, and the days of the year. Going back will put us back in the way that nature is. Now when I wake up, it’s 8:30, but my body wakes up at 7:30. So now it’s going to be correct and it will wake up at 7:30 eastern standard time, which is standard, which speaks for itself.
