I'm pretty sure after one bullet they aren't gonna get back up, and as the video shows they even shot him when he was already on the ground. this is called overkill.

I'm not saying it isn't overkill, but by the time he was on the ground he probably had a good twenty rounds in it.

Serves him right, although they should've hesitated a little because all he took was a few steps back.

He was mentally ill clearly... Though it's obviously not smart what he did, many people have severe issues and poor judgement like he clearly had. I don't think he would have attacked the police, I don't think he deserved to be killed, and definitely not to have his body degraded by 40 bullets. I simply don't think his life had to be taken in that case.
Also you don't need to kill someone to remove the threat...
I'd like to see what you'd be saying right now if the man shot in the video were someone you'd known, a family member maybe. It's like you don't stop to think that it's a human being and not only him but many people are effected by him being killed and by the way he was killed. It simply wasn't necessary.

maybe he was on PCP or some shit? I heard it makes people like a tank

I'd not make a fuss even if it is someone I know. If someone I know is this stupid then it serves him right.
