A former Florida high school student disciplined for "cyberbullying" one of her teachers on Facebook has filed a lawsuit against the principal of the school for allegedly violating her freedom of speech.

The lawsuit, filed Monday by the American Civil Liberties Union, does not seek monetary damages but calls on the school to remove the suspension penalty, which "stained (Evans's) academic record and violated her First Amendment rights."

Man, in America they sue for everything :rolleyes:.
