I don't see any way this could be justified as a "stand your ground" defense.
I believe the reasoning provided is that we cannot substitute our perception for that of thimbledick's. probably looks a whole lot less ominous viewing it in 3rd person as opposed to first person.
WTS, I hope they determine a "reasonable person" would not view this as a threat of life and limb and charge him with a form of manslaughter. My fear is the message of no charges could send.
