Nope, but there's a right way to do things and a wrong way. I'm offering you suggestions on how to interact the right way in the future. You didn't see an issue with your comment and I'm trying to help you understand why others did. If you're not willing to put in the time and effort to show that you're knowledgeable on the subject (in this case population statistics, which you proved you were not), then you need to at least put in the effort to use your emotional intelligence to understand how you're not being particularly helpful and in fact pushing away minorities by offering a "dissenting opinion", one which most marginalized individuals around here have likely heard ad nauseam in their lives from all sorts of folks, bigoted and not.
