Self defense should go out the window when you actively pursue a confrontation, especially when you've been explicitly instructed by the police to not do so.

How exactly does "pursuing a confrontation" by following a person and then turning back to your vehicle justify breaking that person's nose and then repeatedly slamming his head against the ground? Based on what we know, I am failing to see what it was in Zimmerman's actions that justifiably provoked that kind of response from Martin.
