I was reffing a mens league and I had to kick the guy out of the game after a couple of techs... He kept on being a jerk and cursing extensively at me...
Can I continue to give more T's?

Ed, in high school rules, there's no limit placed on the number of technical fouls a person can receive. But at some point (probably after #3), I would declare the game a forfeit. The extra T's don't accomplish anything except to create a parade at the free throw line. I think a pretty standard way to handle your situation is to have the timer start a 60-second countdown and tell the coach/AD/person-in-charge that if the jerk isn't out of the gym for good in 60 seconds, the game is over.
In NCAA rules, any participant can only receive 2 direct technical fouls. This is the result of the run-in between Bobby Knight and Ted Valentine a few years ago.
Oh yeah. Welcome to the forum!! Hope you stick around.
