I think it cropped up again because the site Reddit links to doesn't bother to date its stories. I'd guess it's been circulating on email for three years and eventually landed in a Reddit reader's inbox, who thought he'd post it, not knowing how old it was.
But you're right, it's ironic: a zombie story about a zombie story. :)

That's insane. I think they had better arrest loads of writers for depicting dreadful acts against the USA.
seems it's less clear cut than that but still somewhat concerning

That's really, really old news. I blogged about it in 2005. I don't know how it made Reddit's front page today.
IIRC, the kid got off with a misdemeanour (contempt or somesuch) and the felony charges (Necromancy) were dropped.
hmm justice moves swiftly
or else the internets keeps recycling old stories, damn internet zombies
the case is 3 years old and eventually the charges were dropped
