Nothing of this magnitude would happen in LA from just an earthquake, no matter how bad it was because a very high percentage of the buildings in California are built with earthquakes in mind. Now if a Tsunami hit as a result of the earthquake, it could be real bad. In Iran, the buildings just weren't made as well as the ones in CA.
Of course, I do agree that what happened in Iran is a tragedy though.
