I'm guessing you are talking about a bike lane that has a lane of thru-traffic cars to the left of it, and a lane of right-turning cars to the right of it? (we have one of those where I sometimes ride)
Trying to change lanes there makes me nervous. When I need to turn right I scoot over to the right turn lane as soon as I can (as soon as the right turn lane appears) just like I would if I were a car. Since the cars and I are turning right at the next intersection I figure I'm safe being to the right of the cars when traffic is heavy, rather than taking the full lane. (which I wouldn't do if I were a car!) When traffic is light I take my full share of the right turn lane.
Sorry the one guy flipped you off. He was probably confuse and tried to cover for his embarrassment by being rude.
