Whilst being somewhat thick-skinned myself, I know that there are many others who are quite sensitive about where they come from and react strongly when their origins or heritage is called into question. I find it best to steer well clear of such subjects. Depending on how it was worded, I can kind of see how someone might get upset at a remark like that, even if it was meant in jest. Of course, their response should have been measured and rational, but that doesn't always happen.
