Why did he try to kill two kids for infiltrating a White Fang meeting with it? He stole it to give to the White Fang for the Breach plan, remember? There were a bunch of Paladins on the train in No Brakes, which Ruby and Oobleck had to fight. It seems the plan was not only to lead Grimm directly into Vale, circumventing the border defenses that Coco mentions in Volume 3, but also for the White Fang to attack in mechs amid the chaos of the Grimm attack. The White Fang members may be mere mooks, but they would be harder to beat in Atlas' latest military mech.

Stealing it isn't exactly the question(it was on the train Adam stole), why bring it to the rally where it would become quasi-public knowledge, and then why take it out on the streets where it definitely would be... is the question. To present it to the White Fang members in attendance to win them over. It's one thing to say "Hey, we have an arsenal, so ignore that my employer and I are human because we have cool shit to give you", it's another to show them a taste of that arsenal.
