I don't think the main opposers of nuclear power are afraid of it because of weapons. The nuclear critics I have spoken to, or read, have mostly talked about:
1.) The very slim chance of a very devastating incident
2.) The difficulties of storing burnt out fuel modules (this could include protecting them from dangerous too, as used modules could be used to create a dirty bomb)
3.) The economic problems with highly centralized power grids.
I am definitely not an expert though, and also I am not necessarily against nuclear, I just don't think that weapons of mass destruction are the main concern around nuclear power plants (although they are a part of it).
