A debate on Fox News’ “The Five” on the death of Kathryn Steinle, killed in San Francisco by an illegal alien, got extremely heated. Geraldo Rivera, everyone’s favorite illegal immigration apologist, was accused of downplaying and exploiting Steinle’s death, which led to an explosive confrontation.

When host Eric Bolling jumped into the debate he was told by Rivera that it is true many are “sensationalizing” Steinle’s death.

“From a guy who exploits and sensationalizes everything!” Bolling said.

“Are you talking to me?” Rivera asked.

“Yes,” responded Bolling.

“You’re lucky that you’re my friend or I’d knock you out right now! That’s absolute B.S.!” Rivera shot back. “That’s absolute bulls***! You thought I exploit and sensationalize? What do you do?”

The cameras then cut away to co-host Kimberly Guilfoyle who tried to immediately end the segment.

“Alright, control room? Alright. We are going to have a commercial coming up,” she said, concluding the segment.

Considering that Rivera responded to Steinle’s death by arguing that illegal immigration leads to safer cities, it’s not really a far cry to say that he’s exploiting her death. He might want to cut back on his outrage a little — either that, or maybe try growing some common sense in that brain of his.
