You are wrong on all aspects in certain situations.
- Fear of life isn't needed, just great bodily harm.
- You do not need to retreat in certain areas
- You are allowed to defend yourself and property...

The old law said that you DO NOT have the duty to retreat if you were in your house, place of business, or vehicle, but were supposed to if in other public places.

Now, you do not have the duty to retreat in those public places.
