"Force majeure" is not a legal principle. It means the something is done because the person doing it has the strength to accomplish their objective by violent means. Claiming a defense by "force majeur" in court will probably be the same effect as confessing premeditation.
There are reasonable actions you can take to protect your family. When someone is in the water use the diver flag or anchor a brightly colorred cheap inflatable dingy out there. Put out a swim line. These things are well within your rights. Pre-emptive violence is not, and talking that way makes you sound silly.
Good luck!
