It would be a frosty cold day in hell when I let someone tell me I cannot put an American Flag sticker on my car.
This is disgusting. First, I would make them cite the exact line in the lease which gives them this authority. Then, I would tell them flat-out that it wasn't happening and start looking for a new place while they began the eviction proceedings - making sure to pay my rent in a timely fashion.
I have no idea about Oregon, but in Massachusetts, evictions can be quite drawn out and costly for the owner of the unit. My complex had a line in the lease that stated I waived my right to a trial by jury and all issues would be handled through an arbitrator. I struck that line right through, initialed the change and didn't have much issue with the manager about them accepting it.
Like TDF mentioned, "Just say No!"
