Sure, some humans would be open and accepting, but.......I can see all wessen being forced to submit two DNA samples, wearing some sort of visible ID, having tracking devices implanted. They would be the first suspects in any crime even the usually peaceful types. If the cops had known the brothers were wessen in the Lake Monster episode, they would have been grilled until they confessed.Yeah, I don't doubt it would have played out like this, I feel it would have been interesting to watch for a show, the growing pains of the two worlds coming together. In a way, it feels way above the writing capabilites of the showrunners who seemed to go out of their way to avoid dealing truthfully with the consequences of the characters' actions.
It's a bit disappointing because we've had countless stories told that either show people readily accepting of those that are different like Superman/Supergirl, Thor and whatever weirdly comic character from an alien world or what you describe in District 9 where the prejudice is allowed to fester to painful levels. I truly want to see a story that bridges those two worlds where you move from the one to the other. It's a completely different story but considering how undeveloped the Grimm/wesen world is, I can't help but see the potential in it.
