That wasn't the question. This isn't a complex concept ... armed vs. unarmed....

What happened at the critical moment. If Zimmerman started the confrontation, that does change the situation. If Zimmerman approached Martin, was aggressive, and started this, yes, that woujld make a difference. But as of yet, we don't really know.

What about, the who was "screaming for help" angle?

I don't think that would make much difference, as either could have had reason to call for help. But if Zimmerman started it, he holds the responsibility. Same holds true for Martin. What we do know is that Zimmerman got out of his truck, which does place some of the moral blame on him.

Could you elaborate as to why it does not make much difference, the cries for help on either side?

One could be yelling because he was losing. The other because he was scared and wanted to get out without being shot. It could work both ways. In the end, the only injuries that were at all serious was the shooting. Anyone who's ever been in a fight knows this was pretty minor as a fight a goes.
