If Martin had not been shot there was more than enough evidience to convict him assault but still some people just need to believe certain things to prop up their world view.
Okay, how can you use the Trayvon Martin case AGAINST the stand-your-ground laws?

Don't be tedious, such a claim is unprovable but also the most logical inference

My understanding is that they haven't forfeited the SYG option, just not used it yet.

The short answer is you cannot; Martin stood his ground in an unprovoked attack and died for it.
