Agreed, seems kind of backwards to me. I always thought the Miranda warning was put in place so that no-one could plead ignorance, not as a "your rights start now" type of thing. But on the flipside, by my understanding, I don't think you have a general right to remain silent; I think it's specifically related to court cases. (Don't quote me on that)
