Brutus did not plan to kill Mark Antony although he most certainly thought about it. Brutus knew Antony was loyal to Caesar and that Antony had military skills. Brutus, however, clearly underestimated the damage that Antony could cause. Brutus made a mistake and he would die for his conspiracy against Caesar.

What reason did brutus give for not killing Antony?

Brutus is an honorable man. He does not deisre to kill unless it is absolutely necessary. He doesn't want to kill Antony because he believes that Caesar is the only threat to Rome's security, and that Antony cannot do anything without Caesar around. They were only concerned with stopping Caesar from becoming a king. He doesnt want to kill Marc Antony because he doesnt want it to seem as if these conspirators wanted to just kill these political leaders. Brutus believed that it was only necessary to kill Caesar. The reason for that is Brutus thought Rome should remain a republic. ("Antony is but a limb of Caesar) Also, he thinks that it is too brutal to kill Antony along with Caesar.

Antony was a skillful orator. He provoked d Romans by using rhetorical devices and appealed to their emotions and greed. All through his speech, Antony kept on calling the conspirators, particularly Brutus very honorable but it was obvious that he was using d adjective sarcastically. He laid bare the qualities of Caesar by highlighting his refusal to accept the crown at the festival of Lupercal and referred to his will by telling them that Caesar had left money to each of them and thus proved that he was not ambitious. Antony 's speech nullified all the effect of Brutus' speech and provoked the citizens against the conspirators.
