It's an article of faith amongst the anti-rights bigots that Stand Your Ground laws give people a license to murder!!!
Generally the argument goes something like "All a person has to do is claim he was being threatened and they get off, scott-free". Stories like this, however, tend to whiz all over their fantasy parade.
Story goes like this – Two men are in a scuffle. One guy beans the other guy in the melon with a wrench (a very deadly action, mind you). The guy proceeds to take his newly dented noggin over to his vehicle to retrieve his heater, then returns to the scene of the bashing and shoots Mr. Goodwrench dead.
You see, the timing of "in mortal danger" had, according to this article, passed. If you are able to get into your car, you were able to remove yourself from danger. You have no duty to retreat, but you do have the duty to not reengage the threat. At that point, you chose to put yourself in harms way, and the Stand Your Ground law ain't going to do you much good.
Now, I wasn't here at this altercation. I don't know if Mr. Shooter was being assailed as he tried to enter his vehicle, then he was still in the right to defend himself. Had the firearm been on his person, he would have been in the right to shoot his attacker the instant that wrench saw the light of day.
The point, however, is that there was a dead body and the man's story that he got his bullet dispenser from his automobile clearly indicates that the time for shootin' had passed, and is being held for second degree murder. When there's a dead body, there's an investigation.
Stand Your Ground laws do not give people a license to kill. That's just a fairy tale told by ignoramus anti's so they can milk the other ignoratti out of their donations.
