Reading up on "the stand your ground" law.

"Stand your ground" law is relevantly new in the state of Florida. It simply says if you have the right to be some where and if your not breaking the law, you may defend yourself to prevent imminent death or bodily harm. Which in this case it does not apply in a  domestic violence situation.

  1. You are correct it's fairly new in the state of Florida but the first case was in Minnesota, State v Gardner in 1905.
