The American Bar Assoc. on STAND YOUR GROUND LAWS

Just a slight conflict of interest here.

The group representing attorneys, a group that needs plentiful contentious cases in order to justify their employment and make a living. SYG laws remove gray areas (well, they try to at least) and get rid of what most of us would consider unnecessary court cases e.g. homeowner shoots and kills an armed intruder in their home.

My thoughts exactly. SYG cases reduce their client pool - by eliminating lawsuits against homeowners by n'er-do-wells shot in the act of B&E/robbery, and homeowners trying to defend themselves from prosecutorial abuse AND lawsuits by said n'er-do-wells.
