The White Fang are not blameless for the pain they inflict on others, no matter how justified their actions may appear. What I'm trying to say is that if you don't Blame Weiss, due to her crappy childhood, how can you blame the WF? They all had just as bad things happen to them to start it all. Grandpa Schnee is the culprit. At the bottom of it, Blake and Weiss have that much in common.

You don't walk up to some innocent civilian who lost loved ones in a war and basically tell them "you are the one responsible for their deaths!" It is all kinds of horrible. That's not the same at all. She never said "it's your fault your family is dead". She said that Weiss contributes to the racism. She could just as well contribute to it if she didn't have family members who were targets, and her family members would still be targets even if she didn't contribute.
