Because he had a memory of the war and thought this was a cruel game
Jonas stood still and silent when Asher shot at him with a pretend gun because he was experiencing a moment of realization that violence should not be entertained or glorified, even in play. This event marked a turning point in Jonas's understanding of the world he lives in and the values he holds.
He was silent because he remembered the memory of war that the Giver had given him and how the little boy next to him was asking for water and died shortly after. Jonas was upset by the way Asher and his friends lightheartedly played the game of war and didn't want to participate.
Actually, Jonas wasn't really worried about Asher. He is just dissapointed that the love he feels for Asher and Fiona aren't felt back, since the Community can't love. This makes JOnas feel lonely.
Because he knew the true meaning of what happens of when you shoot someone, Asher didn't.

The Romans believed that things that seemed calm, IE, a silent dog and still water, could still hurt you. Stagnant water is often poisonous (which happens as the bacteria therein are allowed to multiply over time), and a silent dog can still (and if they are focused on you but are silent, still, and alert, very well may) bite you.
