>> The burden on Mr. Zimmerman to justify the use of deadly force is not one he will meet.

"If a defendant was not engaged in an unlawful activity and was attacked where he or she was allowed to be, then the defendant has no duty of retreat and has a right to use force, or even deadly force, if the defendant (under those circumstances) reasonably believed that his or her use of force was necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm. "

No reasonable person, looking at the fact that Zimmerman had beating injuries and Trayvon didn't, should be able to conclude that he was unjustified in using deadly force.
