Why is it awful? I think the thing that most struck people here in the UK when the July 7th bombings happened was the regular mundane lives the terrorists lived until the day they did the deed. The same with people caught in the recent child grooming rings. My contention is against the phrase "normal people". Do we all simply live in societies that reward good behaviour and decency in opposition to our nature? Are we mostly polite not because we really want to be but because we'd like it in reciprocation?
