 * 1) Beacon students apparently maim (and kill) people without hesitation. A misrepresentation sure, but it's what people have seen and they have zero reason to doubt their own eyes.

It doesn't matter that Cinder is behind all of this, the fact that people aren't safe (as per #3) is cause enough for concern and mistrust in Ozpin and his allies. The other two are just bonus.
