Nathan Gale's Mother Bought Him The Gun

According to this report, Nathan Gale killed Dimebag Darrell with a gun that his mother, Mary Clark, bought for him.

"When he came home for Christmas the year he was in the service, I was so proud of that man for cleaning up his life the way he did," Clark said. "And I bought him that gun. I'll never, never be able to live that part down."

Sometime after she gave him the gun, Gale was diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic. At that point, Mary Clark must have had a mental lapse because she obviously wasn't thinking things through. The minute Gale was determined to be mentally ill, she should have taken action to retrieve the gun.

One other thing, now that Mary Clark has been identified in the press, some despondent Dimebag fan may threaten her life.
