The real answer to "Don't tread on me!" people is: "Real Americans just shoot the damn rattlers!".

I'll tell you what's at the bottom of it,... If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you. — Lyndon Baines Johnson (Attributed to LBJ by staffer Bill Moyers.)
