See the difference?

At least in Florida, not sure about other places, you are allowed to
use deadly force to prevent the commission of a violent felony, even
if requires pursuit. That is not "stand your ground" law however.
In Florida, a violent felony means minding your own business while
walking to the house where your dad is staying, armed with a soft drink
and a bag of candy. In those circumstances, a self-appointed vigilante
can confront you, get into a fight and then shoot you.
Viva la Florida.
What! Treevon's dad didn't even live at the complex? So Treevon was
visiting a visitor to the complex? No wonder Zimmerman asked what
Treevon was doing there. I can only imagine what kind of punkish
response Treevon gave.
