I Can't Hear You Over All the Peacefulness

Here's a little cognitive dissonance from the Orange Country Register (printed version). The headline reads:

500 March Peacefully in Santa Ana

and within the article they run this photo:

Looks peaceful to me. "Peaceful" to the Register apparently means "no violence", and not "no noise".

UPDATE: James Taranto points out another example:
"PORTLAND, Maine --Dozens of people pressing for rights for illegal immigrants gathered for a peaceful demonstration on Monday just minutes after a counter-protestor was bloodied by a teenager who hid his face with a bandanna."--Associated Press, April 10
