Stand your ground law

In a recent case of the murder of Trayvon Martin the Florida stand your ground law has been revised thoroughly. In a description of the death of Martin how it occurred. The stand your ground law specifically states that one has to be attacked or ones life has to be threatened to retreat an attack of killing. The state of Florida approaches this stand your ground law as early of 1895 when U.S. supreme court declares that an innocent person under attack was “not obligated to retreat, but was entitled to stand his or her ground, and meet any attack upon their attacker with a deadly weapon, in such a way and with such force as honestly believed to save their own life” .Zimmerman the attacker did not use stand your ground law because he followed Martin all over the community, and he was never under deadly attack until Martin decided to defend himself. Also stand your ground law doesn’t apply if you can retreat, something Zimmerman could have done and decided not to. This is why I believe Zimmerman should be prosecuted for murder.
