I just married a great guy who is 1/2 Filipino and 1/2 caucasian...and both my parents and grandparents about lost it. He's so whitewashed it's ridiculous (how often do you see a large asian wearing cowboy boots, a duster, and packing heat?), but they're only concerned with his eyes and skin.seamusTX wrote: The younger generation even tolerates mixed-race grandkids.
And oh, what will the grandchildren look like?? 
Some of the family is coming around, but it sure is taking a lot of work. I can't say how much it's affected relationships since all this happened at the same time as my parent's divorce which strained everything enough as it is. I can say, however, that family connections are extremely important and when they are severed it can be extremely painful. I suggest having your daughter speak to her fiance about it because I don't know how much a father-in-law can influence a hard-headed young man...but a woman has a certain sway over her significant other.
If he refuses to budge, I wish you the best in persuading him otherwise but would personally begrudgingly honor his wishes if you hope to see your daughter more often than Thanksgiving and Christmas.Directed at Hammer, I understand the idea of honoring the law and wishes of others in regards to carrying because as a CHL holder, we have a higher level of responsibility to be upstanding citizens...but as an old friend once said, "I'd rather be judged by twelve than carried by six." I cannot imagine a situation as of now where I would carry even if it's posted as illegal, but I know that if my gut told me I should keep my firearm on me, and I had no other option but to proceed, I wouldn't leave my gun behind.
