Is it normal my boss told me to fire my coworkers

My boss at work today, who I'm pretty cool with, told me to tell my coworkers that he's going to fire them monday. This puts me in a weird position because I'm cool with them too. I'm not a manager/supervisor so why tell me to do this? Isn't that fucked up? It kind of ruined my day and its gonna be on my mind all weekend. Needless to say my coworkers were bummed out...

Its a good job and the pay is very good.

    I think it was rather cowardly, and lazy of your boss to delegate this particular responsibility to you.

      He's a trip. He didn't fire them today but told me to tell them he's working on their replacements. I asked him to reconsider and he said "We'll see".

    He's just telling you to tell them he is going to fire them soon. That is not the same as making you fire them, but probably still not a good descion by him. This is a confusing post.
