Massa next time that happens you are allowed to ask for documented proof that you need a return ticket. If you have residency in Honduras then that's all you needed to show, and they shouldn't have asked for more than that. As a US citizen, sometimes we need documentated proof when visiting Latin American (and some European) countries on when we will be leaving and if we have a return ticket. Few years ago I visited Canada (Canada of all places) where their customs agents asked me to show them my itinerary. This also happened to me once when visiting Hong Kong, so even though that particular agent in San Salvador told you, you don't need to show anything, next time you might have someone else who will want to see it. Point is Mexicana airlines did what they did to protect themselves from fines. (This I learned when trying to travel to brazil without a Visa). So trying to push it in local court may be fruitless, especially if all things are well documented. But if you have residency in Honduras, and you were forced to buy a ticket then you do have something against them.
