First thing I would like to point out is that you took your last quote out of context to make your point sound better, just like a good lawyer; props. Anyway, the full quote is:

"That still doesn't change the fact that the White Fang are a bunch of scum. Those Faunus only know how to lie, cheat, and steal."

Once again, she isn't talking about the Faunus as a race, she is only talking about those in the White Fang.

Anyway about the timeline Blake gave and the timeline of the Schnee Dust Company Weiss gave (from what we know). Blake mentions that after the war, the White Fang became a voice for the Faunus and boycotted products and gave rallies. It wasn't until 5 years ago that their leader stepped down and a new, more violent one, took its place. Now you have to consider why their old leader would step down. It is entirely possibly that a smaller faction of the group, lead by the current leader, turned more and more Faunus to their way of thinking before forcing the old leader to step down and leave the group to the current leader. If that were true, then these violent acts done by the White Fang could have been taking place for a longer period of time then just 5 years.

Weiss also mentions that the company has had a mark from the time they started. Now this is just speculation on my part, but the SDC could have become as big as they are from war profiteering. The Faunus Revolution could have started in her Grandfather's lifetime and he used cheap labor and questionable partnerships to make his company a leading industrial superpower. If the SDC use cheap Faunus labor to make more profits, this would upset the White Fang who started to form after the war. If her Father took over years later, he would be constantly having to deal with protests outside his shops, boycotts, and the constant negative publicity caused by such actions. Going by this possibly scenario, the WF would have been at war with the SDC well before they turned violent. The things she mentioned happening like vanishing people, murdered board members, and stolen property could have been the more violent acts in recent years.
