Hoplofobia

Hoplofobia (z gr. ὅπλον hoplon - tarcza i φόβος phóbos - strach, lęk) – polityczny neologizm oznaczający „strach przed bronią palną”^[1]^[2] lub „strach przed uzbrojonymi obywatelami”^[3].

Pojęcie zostało użyte po raz pierwszy w 1962 r. przez emerytowanego pułkownika Piechoty Morskiej USA Jeffa Coopera jako pejoratywne określenie „irracjonalnej niechęci do broni”^[4]^[5]^[6]. Hoplofobia nie jest rozpoznaną fobią w rozumieniu medycznym.
