My grandfather was in the RAF in WW2 and thankfully made it home with minor injuries. Over time, he has developed a sort of "racist" attitude towards Germans (understandably so) and Germany. Well, I was listening to Rammstein the other day and he heard the music and tore a srtip out of me for "endorsing the country (he) almost lost his life to". While I respect him laying his life on the line and while I respect the whole mind-set of a veteran, I don't think it's cool to bash me for my taste in music. I don't know what to do here and I was wondering if I could get some feedback.

So does he get like this when he hears Beethoven, too?
That's a bit extreme.

It's quite simple.
Don't listen to Rammstein when your grandfather is around.
In fact, don't listen to Rammstein at all. Ever.

Damn those Iraqis... oh wait wrong war. Or so the Germans would have us believe.
