It isn't "stand your ground" when a thug is bashing your head into the ground; it is ordinary self-defense.
However, it is a hate crime to defend yourself against an attack by one of Eric Holder's people.
I believe it's one of those cases where you have two equally viable defenses. Self-defense is more powerful because it's a common law defense and not dependent on the Florida legislature or on a court's interpretation of an issue of first impression under the statute.
The common law is well-established and draws on nationally accepted legal standards to fill in the blanks in Florida law.
