Making the case that the 'Stand Your Ground Law' does not shield George Zimmerman from prosecution under Florida law.

A quote from your story:

A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force,

If this is the case, and if Zimmerman got out of his car, with his gun, and chased down Trayvon, wouldn’t this “stand your ground” law mean that it was Trayvon’s actions that were covered by this law, not Zimmerman’s?
