Harrassed Christian family sends report to the observatory

The following report reached us in August 2009:
“I am male and live in a town called Luton which is 30 miles north of London. I have a rosary as I am catholic hanging in my vehicle. Filling up in a petrol station a car load of Pakistani young men (there was a flag of Pakistan hanging in their car) called my family and I “Christian white scum” along with other rude names also spitting at us. They drove on laughing.”
