"You have the right to remain silent....." means that the arrestee must say "I wish to invoke my right to remain silent?"

I don't think that makes literal sense in that "you have the right to an attorney" doesn't mean that the person automatically waives their right to an attorney. They have to explicitly state they don't want representation, correct?

So, to invoke rights should be a given and to waive the rights should be stated.
