Calling NC "gun-friendly" is a bit of a stretch. Here's the problem with NC's constitutional authors not thinking that there was a right to carry concealed.
At the time of writing NC's constitution, NC was a slave state. The control of arms was designed to not only keep the slaves disarmed, but it was used to keep freedmen disarmed too. NC had no control over slave owners freeing their slaves, but they sure as hell didn't want them walking around armed like everyone else and acting as if they were human beings or full citizens. In practice, those laws were never enforced against the white folk.
Democraps never seem to stray far from their racist roots. |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
