If it was pepper spray, then how are her eyes wide open? Pepper spray causes an involuntary closing of the eyes and the effects last for a very long time.

What you see dripping from her face in the picture is milk. The protesters were using it as an antidote for pepper spray.

The question that no one seems to have asked: did she really get pepper sprayed, or did she just agree to have someone douse her with milk for the photo op?

I'm thinking the latter.

Her eyes look too clear to have been anywhere around pepper spray.

These Occupy people are the biggest drama queens out there.

Looking at the redness of her eyes and around them, I would say she looks like she was hit by pepper spray, but not too hard.

I would like to see a "before" picture before I said definitively. Some people (and at times most people would, especially allergy sufferers) have red around their eyes without being hit by an pepper spray, especially in cities where irritants come free with the air. Such persons would look like pepper spray victims if they had milk splashed in their faces. Another benefit of tear gas is the mucus running down your face, which the milk would wash off.

Good catch, Just. Lets keep an eye out for her at future leftist photo ops.
