GTA: Real Life

You want the most realistic, fun, and unlimited GTA experience?

One where you can enter any building, drive anything, fly anything, buy anything, and go anywhere? Just follow this kid's lead:

SEATTLE (TIMES/AP) In the forests and islands around Seattle, police are setting traps for a barefoot teenage outlaw who has eluded them for nearly two years.

 

Police say 18-year-old Colton Harris-Moore, whose escapades are turning him into a folk legend, is a one-man crime wave, responsible for 50 burglaries as well as stealing light aircraft, which he taught himself to fly from video games, and several speedboats.

 

He lives in the woods, shuns shoes and catches his own food. His only technological aid is a pair of thermal-imaging goggles to hunt at night and his weakness is pizzas, which he asks to be delivered at the edge of the woods.

 

For some Harris-Moore is a modern Butch Cassidy: a surprisingly agile 6ft 5in cat burglar who thanks his victims by leaving them notes and cheeky photographs of himself, which have sold for $600 on eBay.

 

Thousands subscribe to his Facebook page and his image appears on T-shirts with the logo “Fly, Colton, Fly!”. Local rock groups have penned songs about him.

 

Hollywood producers have lodged lucrative film deals with his family and offered to pay for lawyers if he gives himself up.

 

In April 2008 he escaped a juvenile detention centre and went on the run.

 

Police believe he fled to Canada and then, a few weeks ago, came back across the border to Idaho where he stole a Cessna 182 and flew to Seattle. He crash-landed in a forest clearing and walked away with cuts and bruises.

 

Since then he has been accused of stealing other planes for hops around the islands in the Puget Sound, including another Cessna belonging to a disc jockey who vented his frustration on radio, saying: “He still doesn’t know how to land a plane in one piece.”

 

He evaded a police pursuit by crashing a Mercedes-Benz into a roadside gas storage tank, using the explosion as a diversion to escape back into the woods where, he says, he feels like a Native American.

 

This was followed by the largest manhunt in recent memory. Three dozen sheriffs, aided by specialist armed units and an FBI helicopter, fanned out across Camano Island but failed to capture him. “We saw him, we think, but it’s like he disappeared in front of our eyes,” said one sheriff. ph34r.gif

 

His luck may be about to run out. During a recent sweep a rifle shot was fired at police, raising his status to “armed and dangerous”. His mother, Pamela Kohler, now fears that even if he did not fire the shot he will be held responsible.

 

Kohler said she was proud her son had stolen the aircraft because he had never had a flying lesson in his life. “I was going to send him to flight school, but I guess I don’t have to,” she said. “I’d tell him the next time he took a plane: wear a parachute and practise your landing.

 

“If he shot that gun, it was really stupid. I don’t expect him to come out of the woods alive.”

 

The saga continues, as Harris-Moore keeps finding new ways to embarrass police by slipping through their grasp.

Sounds kind of cool A.K.A. not politically correct. Morals are for dishonest business people who go to church every weekend in their expensive cars for forgivness for a week of screwing people over and slandering.

I don't care much for political correctness either but I don't think this guy is cool. Evading a few sheriffs by hiding in a massive f*cking forrest because he likes stealing stuff is nothing special. It's not like he's Rambo and he's got the national guard after him. Also I suspect half the info above is BS. And anyone who pays $600 for a photo of that muppet should be fed to a shark just for being retarded.

you can always tell, just by looking.

 

edit: HAHAAH I told ya!

 

From wiki:

 

 

and from the time Harris-Moore was in first grade, she knew there was something off about him - "sort of a disconnection" ...

 

Now look at that picture of that kid and tell me you don't SEE that in his face. scary, really.

Dude you should definitely check out this forum: concen.org I can tell you'll like it.

I don't know man. He's managed to evade cops for 19 months and a 36-fed manhunt led by a helicopter. He must have SOME smarts.

Anyway, isn't he living ALL of our dreams? ph34r.gif

I don't particularly want to live in the woods like an American Indian on the run from police without technology to aid me, essentially living like sh*t. Obviously his parents are a bunch of brainless twits anyway, it sounds as if his mum is proud of him. Wtf? confused.gif

How have I not heard of this until now? Had to look it up on the line to make sure it was genuine.

 

Anyway, I'd prefer living in the woods to most natural environments, but life would still be terrible.

 

And someday he'll get caught and forced into a long stretch of prison. Firing a gun at the police was kinda dumb; but maybe they were closing in, and he did it so they would back off (& he could escape).

 

Also, the dense and vast forests of that region would be scary at night. Poor guy is probably huddled up somewhere alone and terrified RIGHT NOW.
