Columbia, Mo – Ever since the war in Iraq began three years ago, protests against the conflict have been a common sight around Columbia from the local post office to the street corners downtown to spots on the MU campus. A movement has even begun protesting the protestors. However, this weekend marked the third anniversary of the war a milestone that led many anti-war protestors to gather at Columbia's Courthouse Square. KCUR and Walt Bodine Show producer Hayley Salvo collected sounds from the event with KBIA.
