self-defense. you saw pictures there of the reverend al sharpton and a number of the protests, that one in new york. there are others across the country. holly, what s taking place there in sanford? well, basically, fredricka, the latest we heard is from former governor jeb bush. he was governor in 2005 when this stand your ground bill was written into law. that s the law that allows somebody, a civilian to use deadly force if they feel their life is threatened. now, in this case where george zimmerman has been claiming stand your ground, he says this is not exactly the case. this was not the intent. take a listen. it appears to me this law does not apply to this circumstance. stand your ground means stand your ground. it doesn t mean chase after somebody who has turned their back. now, in response police chief bill lee who has temporarily stepped down released a written statement on the city s website. he gave the reason they were using stand your ground in this situat
