Which Five Supreme Court Justices just took more of your 5th amendment rights away?

so now your right to remain silence only counts, once the police, fbi or any other law enforcement person tell you, your rights..

Salinas' "Fifth Amendment claim fails because he did not expressly invoke the privilege against self-incrimination in response to the officer's question," Justice Samuel Alito said. "It has long been settled that the privilege `generally is not self-executing' and that a witness who desires its protection `must claim it.'"

The court decision was down its conservative/liberal split, with Alito's judgment joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Anthony Kennedy, Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia.

so now once you are arrest or in custody invoke your firth amendment right immediately..

only these four stood up for the US Consutition of the United State

Liberal Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan dissented. "In my view the Fifth Amendment here prohibits the prosecution from commenting on the petitioner's silence in response to police questioning," Breyer said in the dissent.

so now being silence now, can and will be used against you in a court of law..
