What if a Black Person shoots a White Person first - Stand Your Ground still apply?

What if that Teenage Boy Shot first because he was afraid for his life - Would the Black Skinned Boy be found guilty of murder?  Are 'Stand Your Ground' laws colorblind?  Personally, I think not.

Should black people be reasonably afraid of white people given Stand Your Ground laws and a frightening rise in white racial animus and hostility in the Age of Obama?
The mainstream media will most certainly not ask if black men, when faced with a threatening situation across the colorline, should shoot white people first under the reasonable assumption that the latter means them serious harm under the Stand Your Ground laws.

Black self-defense is the inevitable result of white violence. Ultimately, Stand Your Ground laws may have a consequence that is very different from the one imagined by its supporters on the White Right.
