And yes, I have seen someone start a fight and then lose.

Then tell us exactly how you know for a fact that this is not what happened, especially given the fact that Zimmerman was pro-active (if not aggressive) in following Martin and Martin had, according to Zimmerman himself, tried to avoid contact by running away.

“Then tell us exactly how you know for a fact that this is not what happened”

You keep moving the goal lines. First it’s show me evidence Martin started the fight, then it’s prove it to me. First it’s I know Zimmerman is a jerk and started the fight by getting out of his truck, following a fleeing Martin, then brandishing his weapon. Then you’re the disinterested observer who doesn’t know anything for sure, and is only looking for other people to justify their versions of events beyond a reasonable doubt.

At long last, there is evidence Martin started it, though not direct evidence and not evidence meeting the reasonable doubt standard. There is no evidence Zimmerman started it, beyond him “following” and “confronting” Martin (whatever that means) and not staying in his truck to wait for the police. And that is no evidence at all.
