Sorry about your son, but this is not about stand your ground.
This proposed law is to give people the right to defend their livelihood from looters when the authorities stand down or are overwhelmed by events.
Looters should be shot. |

I'll summarize so you don't have to read the newslink:
My son got drunk and tried to force himself into somebody's apartment. Somebody shut their door on his bare foot in the process of repelling him.
Then a few minutes later, he attacked somebody holding a Glock (the same somebody) and got himself deaded.
The law is an ass, because the guy he attacked didn't go to prison for being attacked by a drunk. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
