[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, the one thing that I noticed about the way that you talk is that you tend to stereotype people.  "Right wing" people in your mind are gun toting racists.  "Law enforcement types" hate minorities and go out of their way to target them unfairly.

In stereotyping people like that, you have raised your daughter to believe that it's o.k. to be intolerant of specific groups of people.  She has just substituted your disdain towards conservatives for a disdain towards minorities.  In her mind it's o.k. to use a broad brush against groups, just like her future FIL does, just like you do.  Instead of holding individuals accountable, this view taints an entire group.

I think you need to understand where this ugly intelorance may be coming from in your daughter.  [/quote]

Ugh. I made sure to raise my kids to be intolerant of those who are intolerant.
OP did it right. [/quote]

You really don’t see the issue with what you just typed out?  You’re the flip side of the same coin as op’s in-laws.  It’s the same damn thing and I’m sick of it all.

I’m also a die hard moderate and agree with the OP. Tolerance of racism is not OK.[/quote]
