Buddhism is a tolerant religion and will not condone the observation of precepts.
Killings and violence is the first top and utmost precepts that Buddhists will not and must not breach - because it is hell-bound and no Buddhists can gain Enlightenment in this lifetime due to the extremely bad karma.
Thus this Ashin Wirathu and his Ma Ba Tha group - are not real Buddhists - but have hijack Buddha's names for his own interest. He is equivalent to Devadatta (the evil disciple that is Avici Hell bound for committing atrocities like this monk) of modern time.
