Ive heard of those big chunks of ice poo landing on homes... Shouldnt it be illegal for planes to dump those over land?

There is an aviation law where they can and can not "dump", that particular incident so happend to be an either to early or a to late of a jetision of there tanks contents.
The black boxes record even those and I am sure the persons insurance company will be finding out what airline it was and getting compensation. TWA had a class action suit against them some years back for the very same thing.

They can't dump sewage EVER! However, occasionally the cleanout port valve, gets stuck/leaks enough to form ice balls.
since this wasn't blue ice, it wasn't toliet water (that goes in blue comes out blue+).
It could have been from the fresh water supply tank or from the sink drains or even the air conditioning system.
either way it's a maintaince problem, and shouldn't be too hard to track down (the airlines keep track of how much of everything that goes on vs everything that comes off of every plane,, every extra pound costs money.
