My dog had a tumor on his leg, they cut it off, it came back, and now it keeps bursting in different parts of the leg, however it's only harm is infection/ getting annoying. My family wants to put it down for they think he's in pain, yet he's acting normal. What excuse should I use to stop them.

He has a bomb implanted in his rib cage. When his heart stops beating, your entire town will be leveled.

Talk to a vet about it. Infections can be really messy for a pet and sometimes they'll put on a brave face for you. If it is their time, it is their time. Be a little selfish but don't be cruelly selfish.

How old is your dog?
My first thought is that maybe your family thinks he's getting expensive? Although this is a thought coming from someone who's bankrupted himself and traveled thousands of kilometers to try and squeeze more life (unsuccessfully) from them. They died of old age and cancer, so far. Although I can understand your family.
Also, I feel there is no reason why the tumor should grow back in the same area if they cut it out properly.
You should ask around for a different (better) vet, or just for more opinions. I have experienced and heard of terrible stories of immoral/incompetent vets.
Excuses? He deserves a fighting chance. He deserves our commitment. If we don't fight for his life, how hard will we fight for another family member's life? Giving up on him will only dull our hearts and emotions and make us colder to future emotional situations. We need to get more opinions. I will feel terrible pain in my heart if you do this, I care about him too much. I will try to pay his bills any way I can. He's my friend.

Also, in my experience, over-medicated (heartworm, etc.) and over-vaccinated dogs tend to get cancer more often. Does his diet include high quality and varied foods, including some raw foods that are 100% safe for dogs? It's 1AM right now, and I'm too tired to go into a lengthy explanation as to what you should feed him - if you want, I'll do it tomorrow.

I'm kind of confused reading some threads on here about getting dogs put down and all. A friend of mine had a dog that was getting old and had severe heart problems, so she was pretty much in constant pain. So the family wanted her put down because it was pretty much cruel to keep her alive anymore, but the vets didn't let them because there was a very slim chance she would survive (which she didn't, and it was very obvious she wasn't going to). I mean, she was clearly not going to make it and they weren't even allowed to put her down.
I mean, you can't just go up to a vet and say 'put my dog down', can you? Or is it just a matter of different laws and stuff?

Yes, in theory, you can just go to a vet and say "put my dog down". However, like abortions, very nasty legal battles can result afterwards where the owner does a complete turnaround and say "I didn't want my dog put down".

Blame it on the litigious nature of the country.

Seconded. Dogs and cats get around just fine on three legs. If taking off the leg is cheaper than taking off the tumor, seriously consider it.
