My reply when I meet jerks in (or from) other, lesser countries:

You're right, I am am an American, and, yes, we are all very brash and rude. We have no culture or sophistication, and are no where near as perfect and angelic as the good people of [insert jerk's country here]. In fact, every bad thing you've heard about Americans is true, including this: we do all carry guns. Think on that...

That usually shuts them up.
