19岁"赤脚大盗"成美国国民偶像

　　After a two-year campaign of robbery across several states and three countries, authorities in the US and the Bahamas are getting ready to throw the book at Colton Harris-Moore, also known as the "Barefoot Bandit." Thousands of people online, however, just want to give him a round of applause.

　　长达两年、跨越美国数个州、三个国家的抓捕行动终于让“赤脚大盗”哈里斯-摩尔落入法网。正当美国和巴哈马警方准备“惩恶扬善”时，成千上万的网名却声援“赤脚大盗”，为其叫好。

　　More than 85,000 people have joined various Facebook pages and online fan groups in support of Harris-Moore, who was arrested Sunday in the Bahamas after a high-speed boat chase. While some have decried Harris-Moore's robberies, he has also become the latest in a long line of American celebrity criminals. Harris-Moore's exploits stealing cars, boats, and planes from the wealthy are a big part of his appeal to his fans. "He made them all look like a fool," one wrote at the "Colton Harris-Moore Fan Club" on Facebook.

　　自哈里斯-摩尔上周日在与警方的快艇竞速中被逮捕后，社交网站“脸谱”上“赤脚大盗”的主页和粉丝团成员已暴增至8.5万人。褒贬不一中，哈里斯成为了美国众多罪犯明星中的最新一员。据了解，哈里斯从有钱人处偷车、偷船、偷飞机是他受追捧的主要原因。“他把那些人弄得就像蠢蛋，”“脸谱”网站上“哈里斯-摩尔粉丝俱乐部”的一个成员这样留言。
