So how about that Zimmerman trial?

SYG has nothing to do with self-defense. SYG states that you don't have to flee. it's more like self-offense.

it's also completely irrelevant to this case.

self-defense says that if you fear for your safety, you can return aggression to try to escape/subdue your aggressor. every state allows that.

that's the defense GZ is using.
