That article has a link to a bigger one on the Evening Standard page,
which has a photo of the person arrested - and he's just a kid. One
has to wonder why somebody would do such a thing.

Neither.

The scary thing is that a twerp such as that made what MIGHT have been a working bomb. The IRA used to say, We only have to be lucky once.

I don't think someone who places a home made bomb on a tube train can really
be described as psychologically normal. I'd say at best he's delusional with
probably psychopathic tendencies.

The nasty toe rag went to Prison boasting he would be out living a
life of "champagne, Bentleys and birds" but that attitude hasn't
endeared himself to other inmates who may make sure any future car
will need a disability permit.

One can only hope.

There's a very good argument that a lot of very wealthy people got their
wealth due to socio or psychopathic tendencies. The route to the top often
involves treading on a lot of toes and generally shafting people on the way up
and to get seriously rich - unless you simply had a very good idea like the
guys who founded google - you need to be seriously hard nosed. Even most of the
landed gentry ultimately got their wealth through their forebears either
doing the dirty work for various medieval kings or by packing slaves into
ships. Not the actions of people with a working moral compass.
