Animals Deserve Respect Button

Animals Deserve Respect Button

Available as a pinback button or fridge magnet in 1-1/4", 2-1/4" or 3"


I made this button after watching the film "Behind the Mask" where the documentary shows, with use of a hidden camera, a "scientist" punching a dog that squeals each time it is injected.

The film is about animal rights activists who break into laboratories and other facilities to provide previously unseen footage of the way animals are used.

It includes well-known names within the animal rights movement, some of whom have been imprisoned for taking direct action. The story of Jill Phipps, who was killed when she fell under a lorry while protesting against the live export of animals, is told, with her mother saying, "They call us terrorists but the reality is that over the years four animal rights activists have been killed during protests."

The UK première was held on September 7, 2006 at the Exeter Phoenix Arts and Media Centre. Keith Mann gave a talk and answered questions. Mann and others have since toured the film extensively worldwide, organizing screenings in local cinemas and at animal rights events. The Telegraph has said about the film: "Regardless of what one thinks about the tactics of the Animal Liberation Front, the film is an extraordinary one that is well worth watching"
