Are they also going to make illegal the export of anything that might be used in an execution in said country? (Certain chemicals to the US, for instance? Handgun ammunition to China?) Holding of stock in a foreign company making execution equipment? Where does it end?

Not sure (although I think I might check). It's probably just a ban on gallows, although I'd like it to be wider...

That's the point to people defending this guy, he's selling them to Zimbabwe, and other similar countries. Who's being hung on these?

That's really not anyone's problem but the people of Zimbabwe's. Restricting someone's business because he sells things that kill people is disgusting.
