Answer by jxdy11
I believe it’s an impure version of cocaine. Pure cocaine would be much harder to obtain and more expensive too because it requires more work to purify. Crack cocaine is the cheaper way to do it. That said, please never use cocaine, it can cause a multitude of harm to your body both short-term and long-term.

Question by : How much cocaine could a person who is 5’4″ and about 135-140 pounds do for an overdose?
I have a friend who does cocaine and she did quite a bit last night? Given her weight and height (she’s about 5’4″ and weighs about 135,I’d say), how much would it take for an overdose? How much can an average built human body handle before overdose? I know it’s probably different depending on weight, height, and how fast your body metabolizes….

Question by : Anybody wanna help me with my marijuana project?
Ok, my parents caught me smoking pot. They are making WAY too big a deal of it. Not only are they taking it too far, but what really bothers me is they have every single one of their facts WRONG. After an hour and a half lecture i can honestly say my parents do not know a single fact about marijuana, they lectured me on price, addiction, effects, laws, and dangers. And all i could think was, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, and WRONG. I have no idea where they got their “facts” from. So im making a report for them, im writing a report about marijuana, and how its not as bad as they think. They swear its cocaine or something, no joke! I will include facts like medicinal use, “addiction” (If any!), and i will include many comparisons with weed and alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs. They are life long cigarette smokers so i will compare heavily to tobacco. Does anyone know any websites, books, movies, or anywhere i can get some really good helpful information for my project? Also if you know anything i should include gimme what you got but i will need you to cite your source!

Question by andrew d: Step Brother problems?
So my step brother is living with us(he is 23) and he is on house arrest for a DUI. He is also going to treatment for doing cocaine “occasionally”. I smoke pot maybe once a month. I dont buy pot, i dont make a point of smoking it, i will just smoke sometimes with people. I have told him a few times after i smoked pot what i did thinking i could trust him. Recently my sister told me that he told my mom that i was a pothead and smoked all the time. I am very mad at him and am going to confront him on why he told them. I trusted him with my personal information and then he told on me and lied about it. What should i say to him?
