Do you have a citation for that?
In the light of the Trayvon attack,it certainly seems prudent to go about
armed after dark.

There is an organization called Neighborhood Watch. They don't want
people to carry weapons. Zimmerman was a self appointed watch guy,
not affiliated with the nationwide organization. He did not have to
follow their rules or suggestions.
