Antinous
Odysseus kills Antinous first because he was the suitor's leader, both morally and politically. Antinous was the richest, loudest, most obnoxious, and most ungrateful of the suitors. He abused Odysseus by throwing insults and then later a chair at him. Further, Antinous doesn't suspect a thing, and Odysseus must eventually kill them all anyways.
After Antinous is killed, the other suitors look for their weapons so that they can kill Odysseus in revenge. They can find neither shield nor spear.
The other suitors do not think it right that Antinous has assaulted Odysseus (the beggar), and warn that it may be some god in disguise. After realizing that Odysseus has killed Antinous intentionally and intends to kill them all, they try to appease Odysseus by blaming all the trouble on Antinous.
Antinous is the first suitor Odysseus kills.

The suitors considered Antinous ungracious for treating the beggar so poorly and warned Antinous that if the beggar were really a god, then Antinous might suffer some ill fate.
