What are the Stand Your Ground Laws & the Alternative Statutes

(2 links) Ever since the Trayvon Martin case in Florida there has been a huge interest in the stand your ground laws. However, there appears to be just as much confusion as to which states are stand your ground states and which are governed by other statutes, as well as just what that means. The featured article tells us which is which and what the other statutes mean too. I had always thought my own state was a stand your ground state. It only made sense to me as I know it’s a we are an open carry state and I had hoped that the duty to retreat laws had been revoked in all states. I was wrong on both counts! Having this information could mean the difference between walking away from a dangerous scenario or ending up on trial. See the state laws on this issue at the featured link from a legal expert
