Gosh. "Sometimes a kid with pipe bombs is just a kid with pipe bombs." I can't dispute your premise that, given a choice of explanations, choose the simplest and most obvious. Now I may be a little isolated, but 1) I haven't seen many 'kids' running around playing with pipe bombs, and 2)where I've heard that it occurs, it's usually a homicide bombing. Oh, well...
