almost certainly nothing, but assuming you decided to pin someone to the ground and repeatedly hit them and threaten their life because they were following you, you kind of lose your right to complain if they shoot you

Right. As a civilian you do not have the right to strike first. Unless its a castle doctrine state and you are in your "castle" you have an obligation to attempt to escape the perceived threat. Martin was a thug, though, and used to using a thugs methods. This time on a guy with a gun.

If you're presenting a threat by following me, I have every right to defend myself from that threat.

In what court room? Certainly not an American one.

And Zimmerman had every right to follow a black male who is seven times more likely than other people to commit murder, and eight times more likely to commit robbery.
