Marrissa Alexander's shooting of a gun into the ceiling to scare off her attacker does not meet the test of "Stand Your Ground."
Maybe if these women had a gun to shoot into the ceiling...they would be alive today:
I could sit here and make a list as long as this day is long of the women who might still be a live if they had just fired a gun in the air. One thing is for sure, they would be no more dead.
