8. Of coarse we both know the OP is parody?

That said 'stand your ground' has been the law of the land for centuries. There was a brief stint when some states changed to a standard they called "duty to retreat"..it was a failure because it unjustly punished and imprisoned far too many innocent people...when this failure was determined 'duty to retreat' was repealed and replaced with a standard some states call 'stand your groung'...it is a reversion back to the old standard which has always been the standard in federal cases..to this day..The federal standard was enshrined by, iirc, Oliver Wendell Holmes. in the 1920's..It will stay..there's piles of case law supporting it, and the alternative is worse...some guilty will go free to ensure less innocent are punished..
