Does this part of your statement explain why it is a direct insult on another member?and if you do it, in my book, you're just another form of low-life.
Not in context. The statement was generalized, and not aimed at any individual.
The part that was snipped, and an infraction dealt out was:Stealing proprietary software where you live may not be technically illegal, but it sure in the hell is unethical, and if you do it, in my book, you're just another form of low-life.
"What a dumb assed thread."

One should probably not use the second person pronouns when making a general observation. While you probably did not intend your statement to be a personal attack, your choice of warning simply begged that interpretation.
In the future, please be more careful with your wording.
^,
O.K., then let it read:
If stealing proprietary software where a person lives is not technically illegal, it sure in the hell is unethical, and if they do it, in my book, they're just another form of low-life.

Glad we reached a level of mutual understanding
You were given a one point infraction that expires in 10 days, which does not impose any restrictions on your account (unless you accumulate more during this period) and is not visible to anyone but the staff and yourself.
I still feel that it was issued in an appropriate matter and see no reason to revert it.
Does this sound reasonable to you?
No.

It would be pointless. Who's going to second guess you.
