That's a completely different argument, and irrelevant to the original claim. I admit that there migh not have been a pregnancy, but it's different from claiming that if she was pregnant she was somehow to blame.

The pepper spraying is going to happen when you rush the police line, at that point you go from non violent to potentially dangerous in the eyes of any cop.

And you forgot about cops getting liquids into their face such as cleaning products.
Rushed the police line? Reference please, where have the demonstrators done this?

Liquids on their face? oo-kay... But please reference, preferably in that particular demonstration?

While for the most part these have been non violent, there have been episodes where an old lady was tossed down a set of stairs when she tried to access her bank in Oakland by the occupyers
Something to back this up? I know a woman fell down the stairs, but was someone charged or is there a video that shows what happened? Or are you perhaps just assuming, when we might just as well be talking about an accident?

there have been stabbings and attacks in the OWS site.
Give me some examples?

Even if you don't, you have to remember that there have been a lot of people in a lot of places for a long time. A few crimes happening in that time frame in the some places is completely irrelevant to the movement in whole.

Your argument seems basicly to be that if a student stabs someone in a school, it's okay for the police to rush the school in riot gear and pepper gas anyone who protests.
