so I am with one of my friends crossing the street and someone almost runs him over so I give the driver the finger out of anger and a cop sees me grabs my arm and tells me not to curse. Was what i did illegal or is the cop wrong I am in Connecticut

In UK verbal abuse is illegal. Under the circumstances most policemen would ignore it. Two points occur to me it may well be in an area in which it is likely to cause a breach of the peace. The driver gets out of the car to clock you one. There is more to it than stated

It's Not illegal, The Cop Was Probably P*ssed.

I don't think so... I mean America has FREEDOM OF SPEECH. I just think that the cop thought that cursing is wrong and to not do that. Hope this helps! @(o.o)@
