Professor's Reply: 
 
While the Court concludes that there is usually no entitlement to affirmative state protection, it holds that the Equal Protection Clause prohibits states from selectively denying its protective services to certain disfavored minorities. Thus, if the state decided to withdraw protection from Joshua because of he was a member of an oppressed racial group, then this decision would likely violate the constitution--specifically, the Equal Protection Clause found in Section One of the Fourteenth Amendment.
