The "stand your ground" aspect can also be viewed in a scenario where there is a third person. That person MAY use deadly force to prevent serious injury or death, and does not have a duty to retreat. If one of the neighborhood eyewitnesses had come out, he or she would have been justified in using deadly force to stop Trayvon's administering of a beat down. This isn't self defense, it's defense of others.
