Yes a trash can is a trash can and a Faunus is a Faunus. I am a person and you are a person. However not every person is a murderer and not every person is a saint. Weiss' grandfather started the Schnee Dust Company and when the White Fang turned violent, they began to attack the company. Weiss probably knew most of the board members considering her father at least has a high position in the company, meaning they were most likely at his house for dinner parties or whatever. Either way, she knew them.

Also, not really sure where you got that definition from, but here are two that I got:
 * a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
 * the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, esp. so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.

Here is another for Racist:
 * a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.

Weiss doesn't qualify for either racism or being a racist because she doesn't look down on a race of people. She hates a terroristic organization of like minded individuals that happen to be Faunus. If you are a Faunus not in the White Fang (and not a law breaker), then she has no problems. That is like saying you are racist against Al-Qaeda, which isn't true because Al-Qaeda isn't a race of people. The White Fang aren't a race of people, they are a group; so Weiss doesn't qualify as a racist because she doesn't hate the Faunus race, only a select group of them.
