crack cocaine/ cocaine ~ please explain?

Question by xdear_charlottex: crack cocaine/ cocaine ~ please explain?
crack cocaine is cut, while cocaine is in it’s purest form, so why is it that crack addiction is associated with violence and abuse, whereas you rarely hear, “The cokehead beat his wife”. Wouldn’t the side effects of paranoia and violence in regards to prolonged use make more sense with the un-cut, raw version of cocaine, rather than crack?

I’m definitely not well-versed in drugs or their effects, but I would believe that a processed drug would have more chemicals or a scientific change to it’s original form that would make it more potent. Pure form enhanced, basically. Isn’t crack and condensed version?
