Trying to imagine 7.8 in the LA area....The looting would go on for weeks...
Just one week.
Then the cannibalism would start.
“It’s terrible! I had 72 85” tvs and next thing I know some other fellah broke into my home and nicked them! It’s getting to where a dishonest fellow can’t even steal for a living in LA!”
The LA area is so spread out—issues would probably be localized.
SF is the worst place to be in “the big one” imho—especially since things have gone downhill there since the last big quakes.

IDK... having to dig through rubble for a rolex or gold coins? That’s very hard work for most free stuff types.
Sylmar and Northridge were 6.6 and 6.7 quakes. I was 50 miles away from both and both times I thought that this was The End.
One point on the Richter scale means a quake 10 times more powerful and those Turkish quakes were beyond that.
Well if looting happens does that mean reparations are off the table? Steal free Sh!t or get free money? Seems like good trade.
