In any civil society there is a way to protest against rules you don't like. Clearly, the way the OP chose, is not right. While the FAs have too much power now-a-days, doing what the OP did ("Not if you’ll stop talking to me and go back and do your job", calling out the other passengers for bringing "too much stuff on board", etc.) just fed the FA's powers further and gave them the gratification of throwing him out.
After reading the way the OP described his emotions and actions, I would even say that the FA's actions were justified in a way (e.g. "I’m looking at the back of Richard’s head and having violent thoughts of what I’d like to do to this guy").
