What did or did not happen is irrelevant to the fact that "duty to retreat" laws get innocent people killed all the time.
Even those who are lawfully armed, who are in a "stand your ground" state are going to leave IF the opportunity presents itself to completely avoid conflict altogether. I can think of few situations where I want to get into a gunfight where I might be killed as a consequence when the opportunity to leave exists.
It's funny how criminals are allowed to attack you and the moment they decide they no longer have an advantage they suddenly become the victim. Same mindset that has people believe they can shoot three cops and the moment other cops arrive they can simply put their hands up and expect to be taken into custody without incident.
Once you cross certain lines there are no "time outs" or "I give." And if the violence and aggression you brought to some innocent person follows you back out the door, you really shouldn't be surprised. Sadly the law of the land in certain states doesn't support such realities.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
