Well at least he wasn't carrying any weapons

So a grandmother puts her one month old grandson through an airport x-ray machine?? It may be an "innocent mistake" by some accounts, but the last time this happened was in 1988.

Let's do some math here ok kids? Approximately 60 million people pass through LAX each year. Now, there's going to be some spikes and pitfalls in that number, but we'll use it as a rough estimate. It's been 18 years since 1988. That means that approximately 1.08 BILLION people have gone through security. That number is highly suspect, but let's low ball it can call it an even 500 million people. So only 2 people out of 500 million people have put babies in the x-ray machine at LAX? You have better odds winning Powerball.

It may very well be an "innocent mistake", but when you see other people putting luggage and laptops in a scanner, don't put your grandson in there with them. Take the baby where people go.
