Raveneye,
I don't see that what you highlighted makes any difference.
What that says is that if you are attacking someone and then you withdraw, they may not continue to attack you in the name of self defense.
That is pretty much standard wording from what I personally know of self defense statutes.
And it has nothing to do with the proposed Florida statute.
In the Florida case, it is specifying that if you are being attacked (active, present tense), you are not required to retreat in order to defend yourself.
