Pretty harsh to be judging the White Fang before its members have even made an official debut -- we still don't have any true confirmation on which side they're on. I personally interpreted the White Fang as a group of Faunus who are using violent methods to express their dissatisfaction towards their mistreatment; hence Bartholomew's statement that ignorance breeds/leads to violence -- the White Fang started of as a simple group of Faunus that just wanted their rights, but then as they increasingly became disgruntled with the ignorance of anti-Faunus humans, they turned violent.

When I think bunny girls in manga, the literal kind is not the first thing I think of. RWBY seems to be a partial deconstruction of the normal tropes regarding anything animesque. It's not impossible that Velvet will get disillusioned with life at Beacon. It's kind of my thing, but I like shows that break away from type.
