[quote=Anonymous]My FIL was stating how immigrants were ruining their country (he is from a Western European country) while at my house. I am an immigrant to the US (and not white); so is DH. I just looked at him dumbfounded. Hello? Your son and your DIL are immigrants? I said to him, "well it's a good thing I'm not considering moving to your country then." My MIL's response, "Oh, he wasn't talking about you." He went on and on about "those people", and my DH finally had enough. He's usually pretty tolerant of his parent's, but it was getting too much. He finally told him to stop, that his remarks were racist. FIL didn't think so. Oh well. Good thing they live thousands of miles away. OP, you need to tell your DH how you feel, and he needs to stop it. The other trick is to just ignore everything the person says, almost like the person is not even talking. Works well for me.[/quote]
