In a way, I understand your point, but the relative risks don't support your conclusion. The neighbor probably owns a car. People are killed by their neighbors' cars all the time. As far as I know, not one person in this country has been killed by their neighbor's snake, native, exotic, venomous or nonvenomous. If you could sue people over your phobias we'd be in even worse shape than we are.
Not saying I support his breaking the law, but as far as I'm concerned, what you have in your house is your business as long as it stays there.
Add to that the fact that if he had gotten a permit, he would be REQUIRED to notify his neighbors. Who would they sue for their "peace of mind" then? Him or the state? I doubt they would feel much better knowing he had a permit.
I'm tired, I'm probably babbling...
