The Tennessee school bus driver charged in a wreck that killed five elementary school kids allegedly asked the students if they were "ready to die" as he raced down a narrow Chattanooga road, a parent said.

Johnthony Walker was speeding "well above" the posted speed limit and lost control of the bus before it flipped over and wrapped around a tree, police wrote in an arrest affidavit.

Walker, 24, is charged with five counts of vehicular homicide for the deaths of five Woodmore Elementary School students: three fourth graders, a first grader and a kindergartner. None of the children - four girls and a boy - have been identified.

Another dozen students remained hospitalized Tuesday morning, six of whom are in critical condition.

“Was he tested for drugs?”

I want to know if he was tested for Islam.

Walker's mom described him as a responsible young man and a good dad ...

Just goes to show, always ask the mom when you want an unbiased opinion. /s

Can anyone here find out about his criminal background? I know Obama doesn’t want employers to check, but it would be interesting to know.

When I saw the picture of the school bus, I immediately thought this was no mere accident.
Now I can ask, was it Drugs or Sudden Jihad Syndrome?

He was just trying to be the first black NASCAR racer! How dare you!

He's more than 50 years too late for that.

Walker’s mom described him as a responsible young man and a good dad to his 3-year-old son ... a marvelous son ... a respected young man.

Of course he was! He was just in a hurry to get to his choir practice. Just another waste of space and he had to kill to prove it.

I used to work with a black gentleman named “Walter.” You could just surmise that any black parents who name their son Walter were not going to let him go astray. And they didn’t.
