THE ANTIQUE CANNABIS BOOK Chapter 3 - (2nd Edition) CENSORED MEDICAL STUDIES CENSORSHIP The Eureka Axe Murderer This is the best picture that we have of him (Hey, he didn’t exist, what do you expect) PART 5 WHAT ABOUT THE LOCAL’S: THE AFTERWARDS: Why has no one over there ever said anything about the Eureka Axe Murderer before.   WHY has he escaped public scrutiny for so long. The answer seems to lie in a lot of reasons, ---- jokingly I once made the suggestion of having an official holiday, a sort of “Eureka California, Axe Murderer Day.”   One with a parade, an arts and crafts faire, etc.   One where the local merchants could all host, “Eureka Axe Murderer Day Sales,” etc., etc.   Humm!   Needless to say, the idea didn’t go very well over there.   Something about driving the tourists the other way, of not being family friendly, or something like that. I guess I can’t blame them, I mean just imagine, going into a photo arcade.   There inside is a poster of a man holding an axe, one of those with a hole where the head should be thus allowing you to stick your own head through.   Oh on the front side is a caption reading, “You Too Can Be the Eureka Axe Murderer.”   Just think what a picture of you that would make. I suspect it didn’t take the city fathers (and mothers) very long to figure out that maybe a cover up wasn’t all that bad of an idea in the first place.
