Sorry, I guess I should have explained further.
1. Anti-slavery people make concealed carry illegal so they can beat up on abolitionists.
2. The whole of America swallows the lies the anti-slavery people used to justify cc in the first place (i.e. it prevents crime, disarms bad guys, makes us safer, etc.). The American mindset largely changes, and a generation or two of kids are raised just assuming that carrying concealed is something dangerous or evil people do.
3. Fast forward 100 years, and people start questioning the conventional wisdom, find it lacking, and start passing CC legislation. One of two things happen:
- In order to get the legislation passed in various states, various compromises have to be made, like it's ok to carry concealed, except into churches and schools.
- CC legislation exists in a state, but anti-cc forces pick up the "what about the children" hype and demand their politicians do something, and the only thing they can think of is to pass idiot legislation about making it illegal to carry concealed in schools.

For what it's worth, it is legal in Utah for teachers to carry concealed. And just this last week, it became legal for teachers to do it in a district in Texas also. Kansascity.com - Careful! The teacher may be packing heat

Clear as mud?
