2. Why, you ask? Where did Yang and Pyrrha attend? Beacon. Who runs Beacon? Ozpin. Therefore, Ozpin taught them to mutilate innocent students for no reason. "Well if a couple of them do it then they all do." THAT is what many people will think. THAT is why anyone from Beacon may be in danger, need I say more?

I think you're underestimating how close-minded people can be, especially with what they saw at the tournmanet, some are so vexed they won't care if it's all a lie, they're gonna believe what they want and Hell to those who say otherwise. 1-Like Chish pointed out, they are not more useful dead. Can't use a weapon to fight the Grimm if you no longer have that weapon. And also, "if nothing changes".....aren't they working on that?

Weiss's goal is to change the SDC for the better. Blake's goal is to stop the White Fang. And in present tense, Ruby froze the Dragon, stopping the biggest menace in Vale and reducing the number of Grimm that appear there exponentially. Obviously they haven't changed much so far, because they have barely truly started.

2-1 student attacked Merc for no reason + 1 student, who trained at Mistral long before Beacon, ripped Penny = KILL THEM ALL? Somewhere out there, a psychologist is crying.

You're obviously not talking about people here, you're talking about degenerate animals. Like Chish said, at most there would be distrust, and caution. No one, much less a mob, will go attack them as if they were a piñata simply for being students at Beacon.

No one related to Beacon is in danger of being attacked by the people. And while sure, there are always close-minded people, they are not going to be entire crowds, and "Close-minded" is not the same as "Irrational violent brute", which is what you imply.
