Well, given how they've been acting so far, I can kind of see how people would find them highly suspicious at least.
SUIT: You don’t think that’s overstating it, General Voll? Our intel says they’re too loosely affiliated to... I mean, they’re scattered in those – VOLL: "Squads," right. Terrorists call 'em "cells."
Add the bank robbing, the stealing of naval vessels from friendly nations, the wrecking of downtown Tokyo etc to that, and coupled with their lack of a PR officer which means their side never gets told, I can see why Joe Public wouldn't trust them implicitly. From there to going "Awww, how cute Harmony was when she ate that girl, vampires rule" is a pretty big step, though. And an unnecessary one, IMO; the story doesn't need it.
