If conduct jeopardizes the general population, which group does it belong to?

Explanation:
When conduct threatens the welfare of the community as a whole, it fits crimes against public health and safety. This category covers acts that create substantial risks or harm to the health, safety, or well-being of the general public, not just one individual. Examples include releasing toxic substances, spreading disease, or other violations that could impact many people. It’s not about harming a specific person (that would be life and bodily security), not about disturbing public order (that would be public peace and order), and not about property damage or theft (that would be crimes against property).
