I was looking at the Weiss page and I noticed this was added:

"Due to circumstances regarding her family business' relations with the Faunus, she possesses a deep mistrust of all Faunus, believing them all to be miscreant and evil, despite others' opinions (notably Blake)."

Isn't it a bit of a generalization to assume that Weiss thinks that of all Faunus. It appeard to me that she only held a distaste for the White Fang and criminals in general. Around the eight-minute mark in Episode 15, she states that she despises the White Fang specifically and not all Faunus. If she meant that she hated all Faunus, she would've likely said what she meant.

I think she caused a lot of confusion by using Faunus and demeaning words together in the same sentence. I think that a lot of people are misinterpreting what she said and that misinterpretation is causing a lot of people to hate her, from what I've seen, and I think the hate is a bit misplaced.

Any thoughts?
