Not so much a strange belief but I bought into the lie that Crack Cocaine is in some way a hard drug but powder cocaine is glamorous. As this article and countless others prove that is bullsh*t. They are essentially the same thing the only difference is the removal of hydrochloride in crack cocaine so it can be smoked, everything else is the same. Yet the sentencing for crack is so much harsher than powder. It is IMO one of the biggest lies ever sold to us.
