Ruby and Jaune won't be overlooked. Jaune because he has Pyrrha, and it's clear that people idolize her, and Ruby because she has Yang, and I'm guessing people don't mess with Yang.

Pyrrha could use her status to turn people against Jaune's bullies, and Yang will just show people why not to mess with her sister. Word of the guy who Yang crippled permanently would spread pretty fast.

The Faunus, though... well, I'm guessing that most people just look the other way when racism is prevelent - but if sides had to be picked, the majority would likely fall on the side of the Faunus. The reason that no one protected Velvet is prob. that fighting is against school rules, big time. If it wasn't, I'm sure that there'd be an army of people constantly beating CRDL into the ground, and clearly, there isn't.

Blake wears the bow because (I'm guessing) many people hold Weiss's opinion of "Faunus I don't instantly love? Must be a White Fang member." And because Blake was a WF member, and is terrible at keeping secrets when pressured (With the whole blurting-out-her-biggest-secret thing), her best course of action is to never get questioned on it at all. If she was never WF, she likely wouldn't wear the bow.
