In fact the physical attack is not even the legal test, only that
Zimmerman feared he was going to be harmed.


What a stupid law.


That is the self defense law in most states.
The only thing different is the duty to retreat and Zimmerman says he
was walking away when he was confronted by Martin.


I suppose you could call that a retreat situation. And, in that case,
the claim that he was attacked from behind fits.
