Which of them are redneck states and why do they like hitting asses?

As I understand the meaning of a redneck state, a southern, usually rural state with very conservative leanings, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, Kansas, Montana and Indiana don't qualify. If you eliminate the southern qualification, they all qualify.
