Those who stand up against this viewpoint think that--due to the fact that kids often repress their tendencies toward violence and aggression in front of adults--comics provide children with the fantasy of violent games and offending adults. They are a "healthy outlet." Youngsters commit crimes for a number of complicated reasons. How can we blame it all on comics?
為漫畫辯論者則認為，由於孩童在成人面前，通常會壓抑暴力及侵犯傾向，漫畫提供孩童暴力遊戲及侵犯大人的想像力，是一種「健康的發洩」，青少年犯罪的原因相當複雜，怎能全部歸罪漫畫？
