Two thoughts immediately come to mind.
1) We should not allow this guy (or others like him) to get under our skin and goad us into confrontations / debates.
and
2) Someone might want to let the police know what he intends to do since 'drawing' down on people who might not see that it is a banana he is drawing is a dangerous provocative act.
Just a few thoughts.

I am girding up my loins to plunge into the man swarm at the Labor Day weekend street festival, the revelry of which will make my city unbearable to quiet pursuits. I will stride among the masses with a good-sized banana strapped to my belt, and, whenever I come upon an open-carrier with his piece, I will point to my fruit and say, “Hey, buster, mine’s longer than yours.”
