Confederate Memorial Day Mugging:
Student Beaten Unconscious for Confederate Flag Picture on
School Library Book

By Neill H. Payne

HOUSTON, TX - Another student fell victim in April to the escalating campaign for the ethnic cleansing of Dixie.  Ryan Zane Oleichi, a 13-year-old student at Labay Middle School outside of Houston, Texas, required hospitalization for the treatment of injuries he received when he was viciously assaulted as he was leaving school.  The two perpetrators, a Black and an Hispanic classmate objected to a book that Ryan was carrying home because it had a picture of the Confederate battle flag on the cover.  Ryan got the book from the school library for a report that he was doing on Gen. Robert E. Lee.

This outrage is the direct and proximate result of a hostile learning environment created by the administration of the Labay Middle School. Particularly culpable is the Assistant Principal, Ms. Cheryl Morrison. 

Back on 19 February, which was a Monday, Ryan’s mother Melinda Hill was called to the school.  Ms. Morrison met with Ryan’s mom to tell her that Ryan was to start 3 days detention as punishment for his wearing of a Confederate flag patch on his shirt.  The offending emblem measured all of one inch by one and one-half inches.  Overruling the fact that the rulebook only calls for a one-day penalty for infractions of the school dress code, Ryan was to be made an example.  You see, Ms. Morrison told Mrs. Hill, “We must make an example of Ryan.  He is a racist.”

Mrs. Hill was confused by this turn of events.  Ryan had worn this shirt several times before without incident.  He is proud to wear the Confederate flag because of his love for his Southern Confederate heritage.  He is a good student with good grades.  He is not a troublemaker nor is he a racist. In fact, he is half Lebanese.  Ms. Morrison would only say that an “extreme example” must be made. Ryan would be given three days detention and then forced to apologize publicly to all the Black students for being a “racist.”

Thus the Assistant Principal’s auto-da-fe set in motion the wheels of persecution that lead to Ryan’s beating.  Students began verbally abusing Ryan and harassing him.  On 20 April events began to escalate. A student, Christina Nelson, walked up and slapped Ryan’s face.  She then threatened to sic her “posse” on him.  “Posse” is generally understood to be a slang term among Blacks that means “a gang.”

Then on 26 April, which is Confederate Memorial Day in Texas, Ryan was working on his book report on Confederate General Robert E. Lee in his first period class.  He was looking at the book that he had checked out from the school library.  A classmate of his, a Black student named Andrew Foster asked, “What’s that?”  Ryan replied, “It’s a book.” Andrew then asked, “Why do you have that flag on it?”  Ryan responded, “It’s the only one in the school library.”

At this point an Hispanic student, Leonardo Suarez chimed in, “You racist .. . you racist!  I’m gonna kick your a__! I don’t know when, maybe today, maybe tomorrow, but I’m gonna kick your a__!”

When leaving the classroom, the Black student, Foster, tripped Ryan then slammed him against the lockers and issued his own threat to kick Ryan’s a__.  They made good on their threats as soon as school was over.  In a sickening display of how diversity is our strength, this multi-ethnic duo caught Ryan outside the school fence.  Foster got to Ryan first and began punching him in the face and stomach until Ryan hit the ground.  Foster then hollered for Suarez to join him.  Foster shouted, “Hey Leonardo, Ryan doesn’t like Mexicans, he wants you to go back to Mexico.”  Suarez ran up and with his steel toed boots and started kicking Ryan in the head as Ryan lay on the ground.  Suarez continued “kicking his a__” as he had threatened to do until Ryan lay unconscious at their feet.

At no time did Ryan fight back even though he holds a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.  Even at the tender age of thirteen, Ryan understands the political landscape of the Political Correctness Empire.  He knew that if he were to do anything against this pair he would be painted as the aggressor.  Don’t forget, he now bore the scarlet “R”.  He was a racist according to the judgment of an assistant principal and by virtue of his own coerced confession and apology.  It was open season.  He was to be made an example.

Unfortunately, even his refusal to fight back did not help his cause.  The school, when it learned of the “incident”, did nothing.  The excuse that they used for their do-nothing policy was that the “incident” had occurred out side of the school grounds.  In spite of witnesses they declared it was “mutual combat,” because Ryan had the audacity to put his hands up to protect his face.  The District Attorney was contacted and he has refused to file charges.  So far nothing has been done and apparently no official or agency will do anything to bring some justice to this situation.

Ryan subsequently spent three days in the hospital, was treated and released to convalesce at home.  When Ryan returned to school he received more verbal abuse and death threats.  A particularly odious harpy, a student by the name of Carrie Neumann, made a small career out of shouting loud insults at Ryan every day.  She issued veiled threats saying that she was “connected.”  She sent a package to Ryan’s home that his mother is afraid to pick up.  This entire outrageous experience is causing a great deal of strain on this single mom and her son.  Until they contacted the SLRC, no one that they called would dare lift a finger to help them.

No amount of pleading or protest by Ryan’s mother could get the school or district officials to intervene on Ryan’s behalf.  Assistant Principal Morrison made good on her promise to make an “extreme example” out of Ryan.  What must it be like to be thirteen and to be thrown to these wolves?  Ryan learned that Suarez was saying that he was, “not satisfied and won’t be until Ryan is dead.”  One week after he returned to school his mother withdrew him and she will school him at home.

Some editorial reflections On the beating of Ryan Zane Oleichi
By Dr. Neill H. Payne, Editor


This case stuns me.  This is one of the worst outrages against the Southern heritage since the cold blooded murder of Michael Westerman, who was shot to death in front of his pregnant wife by a murderous gang of Confederophobic, Black thugs. Westerman’s only crime was displaying the Confederate battle flag from the bed of his truck.

Now this.  Now a thirteen-year-old little boy is branded a racist for wearing a flag the size of a postage stamp?  This PC Tyrant Ms. Morrison is allowed to brand this child with the most odious label that there is . . . “Racist!”  If you have not figured it out, the Cultural Bolshevism of Political Correctness only recognizes two sins.  Racism and Homophobia.  The former ruler of America, Bill Clinton, proved for all time that one can now be every kind of a degenerate and that does not matter.  Just as long as you are “correct” on Homos and Racism you are OK.  Branding Ryan a racist placed him outside the protection of society.  She made him an untouchable, an outcast and an outlaw.

What shocks the conscience more is the public humiliation of a forced apology that Ryan was compelled to perform.  This is straight out of some Stalinist nightmare.  I thought that coerced “self-accusations” died with the old Soviet Empire.  Oh no!  Looks like Hammer and Sickle has been passed to the Cy-Fair Independent School District.  What’s next, Red neckerchiefs and Little Red Books in the classrooms of Labay Middle School?

Well.  There is no sense in lamenting the unfairness of this situation.  No honest person has any doubt how this story would play if it had been two skinheads stomping a thirteen-year-old Black student unconscious for carrying a book on Malcolm X.  Before all the media orgy was over one would be sick to death of hearing Schumer, Lantos and Feinstein and all the rest of that buzzard-headed flock of Liberals squawking for more Hate crime legislation.

So what must be done?  If you really want to see justice done for Ryan, you must give us the tools to do the job.  We really want a punitive piece of Cy-Fair ISD.  We must stand up for the Ryans out there who simply want quietly and inoffensively to display the pride they have in their Southern heritage.  We need a war chest so that we can take the fight to Cy-Fair.  Five thousand dollars won’t even buy us a cheap lawsuit. This is a rich school district and they will fight us.  It will take ten thousand dollars just to get started.  We need your help.  We not only need your faithful donations, but we need you to get your friends, your SCV camps, everybody you know to start donating today.
