I'm also concerned that "shouting at the bullies" makes the whole environment more unpleasant for all the innocent bystanders. I have much more interest in having them know that it's a friendly place.

I'm trying to find the best way to reply to this, but I honestly find it quite patronising. I've barely even been oppressed, but on the couple of occasions I've experienced even the mildest oppression, being bullied at school for example, I reached out and talked to the bullies.
I worked damn hard to get to know them better, and tried harder to be friendly to them, somewhat incessantly. It paid off 100%, and I also think that they became better people because someone confronted them with friendship rather than rejection. Some of them are still friends.
