I Have Been ' Blocked '

Someone blocked me just for answering their question! Their question was "Is Oregon overrun with Mexicans?" Since I live in Oregon, I answered. I said in my answer that although there is a large Mexican population in Oregon, the state isn't overrun with them at all. But I noticed he deleted my answer and when I asked why and stated that I was just trying to offer him some insight since I live in Oregon. He told me he can't rely on my answer because I'm young and proceeded to belittle me for my age! All I did was give him an answer and it wasn't just a matter of personal opinion, it's a fact! There is a large Mexican population here but it's still a minority. He can look it up himself! But he went ahead and blocked me before I could even reply. I may be young but at least I'm not so immature that I can't admit when I'm wrong and will just silence the truth to avoid being proven wrong.

Here's the question I'm referring to:

Funny how he posted it in the "seeking advice" category.

This is what I left him on his post and I don't care if I get blocked:
[b][c=#003BB2]What gives you the authority to tell this young person she doesn't have insight? She lives there and you are asking a question regarding the state she lives in. Besides, she probably knows more than you on the matter. Yet your ignorance show how discriminating you are to our youth.[/c][/b]
You didn't have to do that but thank you. :) You'll probably get blocked too now, lol. But at least he'll know.
@Tulips: Like I said,love I don't care if I get blocked. You chose to state your opinion and it wasn't received because you were discriminated by age. That is not acceptable.
