Kemper now:
No. I fully understood what bboyminn was getting at: Kreacher is a
threat and should be eliminated (if he's not dead already by
Dumbledore's wand or order). I can see where killing him would be
easy and possibly necessary, what I don't see is Dumbledore making
the killing of Kreacher okay which is what bboyminn was originally
suggesting. I CAN see another member of the order execute Kreacher
without DD's authority (Mad Eye and Snape come to mind and that would
be darkly funny to see the two accidentally stumble upon each other
at HQ to kill Kreacher.)
Back to Rebecca:

with.
Kemper again:
Killing Kreacher is no different from killing known DEs. They are
both dangerous to the Order, to the Wizarding World and to the Muggle
World.
I did notice that Dumbledore *does* something in the DoM. Notice
that he didn't kill any of them though he could have and that they,
the DEs, have committed heinous and, mostly, unpunished crimes for a
long time; some of those crimes would result in government sanctioned
executions in few (or one?) first world nations.
Again, what I'm saying is that DD would never allow Kreacher's
execution. If Kreacher is to be executed, it will be by another
member behind DD's back.
Hope my ideas are clearer,
Kemper
