I do feel a little bad for mom...

I think the real reason the left hates these laws is that it ends a potential source of revenue for the race hustlers. Most of the stand your ground laws include a provision that gives the shooter immunity from civil liability if the shooting is ruled justified. Cynically the left realizes they need a certain number of martyrs, as long as they stand to profit from their deaths.
