I'm sorry, can we go back to the part where i "don't let my neighbors" do something? Unless they are in violation of a law that is actually enforced by someone, I don't think I have standing to let or not let them do anything.

In hypothetical places where there aren't, the concept of a tort still exists. You do, in fact, "have standing" to not have your neighbors poison you. This is a good thing. It should be celebrated.
