No way could I ever be friends with someone like that, Reuben. Such a person might be male but he is not a man. Disciplining children is not a "one size fits all" proposition but dislocating parts of the body does not fall under the rubric of discipline but rather under the category of torture.
My father was very heavy-handed with respect to discipline but he never dislocated anything on me. Like your neighbor, he went too far; inflicting excessive pain when a few stern words of disappointment would have sufficed. That's why my father, God bless him, had no friends. He was too stern, too rough, and never happy.
Your neighbor is a monster. Acknowledge his presence but avoid him as much as possible.
