Scout's question upsets Jem because of the fact that an innocent man was convicted simply because of the color of his skin. Jem thinks the world is too much and too biased.

Jem is upset by Scout's question because it challenges his sense of justice and fairness. He is struggling to come to terms with the racial prejudices and discrimination that exist in their society, and he is grappling with the injustice of Tom Robinson's trial. Scout's question forces him to confront these difficult and uncomfortable issues.
