In the 60s, most Southern states were no-issue when it comes to concealed carry, and most of the rest were may-issue.
Even before the recent ruling, there were 8 states that were may-issue; the rest were shall-issue or no permit required.
Yes, and that was to keep guns away from blacks.
Justice Thomas has discussed this in his SCOTUS opinions. It’s quite revealing and well worth reading.
SCOTUS rulings are a lot more readable than you might think. They are often quite colorful. You quickly learn to skip by the boilerplate to find the dissenting opinions, which are near the end.
