As a former LEO, let me give you my perspective. When an incident is occuring, you need to call the police and they need to arrive before you get there. It is their job and responsibility to maintain order and deal with unruly subjects.
Arriving at the scene and trying to handle it yourself is just asking for trouble. Eventually someone will be injured or killed. Up to now you have been lucky that one of your uncles friends hasn't pulled his own gun.
If you arrive and the police still aren't there, wait in your car until they do. If one of these guys trys to attack you in your vehicle, he is the aggressor and you are justified. If you jump out of your car to confront him, that makes you the aggressor.
It's time to charge this guy with trespassing, appearing drunk in public or disorderly conduct.
