> The USSC recently decided that if you are merely silent that means you waive your right to remain silent. No. Based on the opinion linked in one of the other comments, there are these possibilities: - explicitly say you are invoking your right to remain silent -- the have to stop asking you questions - say nothing -- you're fine, your right to remain silent means they can't use this against you - answer questions (without being coerced) -- if they read you your rights properly and confirmed you understood, this waives your right to not do what you just did; if they messed up, then you can get your answers thrown out
