"Not nasty enough!"

I for one agree with your message, I'm not one of these "Boo hoo, nobody deserves to die" brigade. As far as I'm concerned, mass murderers should be tortured to death in as gruesome way as possible. I don't think you went far enough with this opportunity though! You should have really made that guy suffer!
However, you cheated with this message. For the most part this was a simple narrative of a guy who kills people, gets arrested, and then gets executed. I wasn't really sure of what you were getting at until the tagline "Isn't a shame that we can't punish these people..." (I'm paraphrasing, I can't remember exactly what was said). You should be SHOWING us this point, not just having it written down at the end to tie things up.
The animation and style was awesome, I loved it. The song worked well.
Another quibble - it felt a little flat. Whilst I agree with your political stance, it wasn't a very emotive piece. I wasn't feeling "Hell yeah, kill that sumbitch!" and I can't imagine people with opposing views getting all that involved either. It was lacking something, I'm not sure what though.
Good overall.
