Indeed. Her view was that Blake was criminal scum who has killed who knows how many people. She couldn't excuse the fact that Blake was one of those crazy, thieving murderers just because she was her teammate. At first, anyway.

I mean, Ruby was just being a goofy show-offy child who seemed like she didn't have the right to be her leader, let alone to even attend Beacon. Weiss' initial judgment of Ruby seemed to be "What is this child doing here? Ugh, she's so reckless! She's going to get herself killed! Great. She's my partner. Wonderful. She's going to get us both killed. Just my luck. *Sigh* I guess I'm better off with her than with Jaune." Even after the initiation and being announced her team's leader, Ruby continued to behave in an immature way, even goofing off during class and making a mockery of their teacher. Weiss, meanwhile, seems to be the type of person who takes her education extremely seriously. She even labeled herself as "the smartest girl in class" during her... *sigh* soliloquy about herself and Pyrrha partnering up.

That's nowhere near as bad as a perceived lying murderous thief. Remember: "You want to know why I despise the White Fang?! It's because they're a bunch of liars, thieves, and murderers!" Blake didn't just out herself as a Faunus. She outed herself as a member of the White Fang and didn't even clarify that she's not with them anymore. All she said was "Well, maybe we were just tired of being pushed around! ... I-I..." As far as Weiss was concerned, Blake had deceived them that entire time and, after running away, was a murderer on the loose.
