' This is true, and I suspect it's because he still has hope for her, otherwise he wouldn't waste his time and let the Huntsmen deal with her as they see fit. Though I'd say it's obvious now that Raven will never change for Qrow, even though she'll still talk to him she won't abandon the tribe for his sake.

What difference does that make? You still doomed those people. People who barely have anything and she stole from them. If it's really about survival of the fittest then her tribe should attack Atlas and steal all their stuff. Stop picking on the weak and downtrodden. I think it's obvious why, if they tried laying siege to Atlas they'd be annihilated, General Ironwood would have them all rounded up and put in front of a firing squad. Same reason they don't attack Mistral, the Haven faculty would make short work of them. Hence why they only target the outlying villages, less chance of resistance. Cowardly, yes, but that's their MO, so to speak.

As for why she gave such an evasive answer to Qrow, she probably didn't want him knowing the truth. Even if he knew the real reason she would never admit it, her pride would not allow it. Just like any good con artist: deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. Something like this anyway.
