Shaolin Master Kwai Chang Caine killed the emperor's nephew in defense of another man. He then fled to America, where he wandered the west in the hope of uniting with an unmet half-brother.

I'm sure that over the course of history at some point in time, a Buddhist has committed a murder, but no I can't provide proof of that.

hi sandy , have you hard of the Spanish Inquisition. I dont think Jesus recommended burning people to avoid spilling their blood. How about the Salem Witch Trials by the puritans. Not sure of your point about SInhala Buddhists

The original Buddha, in his final reincarnation, admits to murder in a prior life.
In the popular story of Sakyamuni’s final birth and renunciation of worldly pleasures, several questions arise. If Sakyamuni had really passed through virtually countless lives previous to that one, why did his father need to shelter him from the harsher side of life- why was Sakyamuni so startled by the sites of death, poverty, and old age, when he finally ventured out of the palace to see things for himself? If we are to take the Jataka re-birth tales at face value, he would have been quite familiar with all of these harsher realities of life- in fact according to the Jataka tales, he was sometimes a participant in the cruel side of life. “…within this group is the one which depicts the bodhisatta himself as being, in one way or another, involved in killing or injuring.

How could they? A Buddist does not recognize any absolutely real entity, so their is no one to murder.
But seriously, I'm sure people claiming to be Buddhists have killed others.

Of course. You see, we're ALL Buddhists, but only very few of us know it!
