Zorro maintains a false "pushover" identity that he hides from everyone he knows. When they protest that he is being untrue to himself he keeps up the facade in order to convince everyone that he couldn't possibly be Zorro.

Don Diego Vega (Zorro) has received military training in Spain, but for most of the movie he fights the local governor as a vigilante.

In two scenes, Zorro threatens people with a revolver. In another, Zorro is shot at with rifles but not hit. The alcalde's guards hold rifles in many background shots.

It's questionable?
Zorro flirts with a married woman, who flirts back, but Zorro is only pretending to be interested. He convinces her not to leave her husband in the end.

In a way? Lolita confesses to Zorro when he is disguised as a priest. She doesn't know it's him at first.

Background characters are shown sleeping outside, but this is implied to be a town-wide "siesta" and not a permanent living situation.

It's not onscreen, but there is mention of cockfighting and it is implied the rooster the alcalde buys has been used for that sport. (And therefore abused.)
