 Keep and Bear Arms - Gun Owners Home Page - 2nd Amendment Supporters
Overturning state gun control laws that were enacted with racist intent, and are having a current racially disparate impact despite that impact being (possibly) accidental in modern times — in other words, use of the 14th Amendment “equal protection clause”.
Hunter (1985) didn't happen all of a sudden; the exact same criteria for junking a law (racist intent when enacted, racist effect in enforcement even when accidental) was described in Arlington Heights (1977) although in that case, the plaintiffs weren't able to prove a racist origin of a local zoning ordinance.
What the courts finally did in the 20th Century was “selective incorporation” to restore state respect to only those parts of the Bill Of Rights they were comfortable with at any one time — and the right to arms remains “unincorporated” at present, along with the Grand Jury requirement for indictment.

 The Racist Roots of Gun Control
The end of slavery in 1865 did not eliminate the problems of racist gun control laws; the various Black Codes adopted after the Civil War required blacks to obtain a license before carrying or possessing firearms or Bowie knives; these are sufficiently well-known that any reasonably complete history of the Reconstruction period mentions them.
State (1859), the Texas Supreme Court had recognized that there was a right to carry defensive arms, and that this right was protected under both the Second Amendment, and section 13 of the Texas Bill of Rights.
One especially absurd example, and one that includes strong evidence of the racist intentions behind gun control laws, is Texas.

This may have happened in 1964, when Goldwater, who neither supported segregation nor called for it, employed the term "states' rights," which to many whites in the Deep South implied the continuation of Jim Crow.
It is not at all clear that the GOP's policy positions are sugar-coated racist appeals.

The laws enforcing racial segregation, however, were not always welcomed by the local white community.
Many historians have argued that racism has been an integral part of the United States of America since it was first colonized by Europeans.
