New Hampshire House Vote To Repeal Stand Your Ground Law

[freshwest]

3. Often included in laws penned by ALEC.

Many states have some form of Castle Doctrine or Stand Your Ground law.

Alabama,[11]
Alaska,
Arizona,[12]
California,[13][14]
Florida,
Georgia,
Illinois[citation needed], Indiana,
Iowa,[15]
Kansas,
Kentucky,
Louisiana,[12]
Maine,
Michigan,[12]
Mississippi,
Missouri,
Montana,[12]
New Hampshire,[12]
North Carolina,
North Dakota,
Ohio,
Oregon,
Oklahoma,[12]
Pennsylvania,
Rhode Island,[16]
South Carolina,
South Dakota,
Tennessee,[12]
Texas,[17]
Utah,[18]
West Virginia,[12]
Wisconsin and
Wyoming

have adopted Castle Doctrine statutes, and other states

(Iowa,[19]
Virginia,[20] and
Washington)

have considered "Stand Your Ground" laws of their own.[21][22][23]

Some of the states that have passed or are considering "stand your ground" laws already implement "stand your ground" principles in their case law.

Indiana and
Georgia,

among other states, already had "stand your ground" case law and passed "stand your ground" statutes due to possible concerns of the case law being replaced by "duty to retreat" in later court rulings.

Other states, including

Washington and Virginia,

have "stand your ground" in their case law but have not adopted statutes;

West Virginia

had a long tradition of "stand your ground" in its case law[24] before codifying it as a statute in 2008. These states did not have civil immunity for self-defense in their previous self-defense statutes.

Appears almost universal in the United States, but now NH is off the list. ALEC writes laws to benefit corporations, not citizens. I formatted that not as Wikipedia had it, but to make a list. Hope that is helpful.
