You might know Lea DeLaria as as Big Boo from Orange is the New Black, but did you know she was a member of the NYC subway patrol?

We didn’t know either.

Anyone who frequents the NYC subway system is aware that straphangers often break into random performances, poems, and sometimes religious speeches.

Tuesday night, DeLaria went off on the rails, verbally attacking a man who was spreading the good news of Jesus Christ.

DeLaria, who was wearing a “Bad Jew” t-shirt, jumped up and said the man has no right to disturb her subway commute with his message.

Take a look at the videos obtained by TMZ and let us know what you think. Does DeLaria have a point?
