Hanging around is as bad as being part. You know what they're doing and by being there you are showing approval. Let's say I know my friend is going around town killing people and I tag along. I don't kill anybody at all, but I'm not doing anything to stop him from doing it. What would you think of me? And then I decided to leave him but still talked to him?
Now, I could forgive this as different social ideas. Lots of things are gray in this world. Maybe Carlisle left because he disagreed with them and went on his own, but the series doesn't do that. The characterization is all over the place. The Volturi are our friends/they are evil! It all depends on what is convenient to tell versus who they are as characters.
It would have been better if the Volturi were friends in an ironic way like PatF has Facilier and his friends. XD
And I really should do a hypocrisy count in Twilight. -_-;;
