While he has absolutely no reason to be surprised by a member of another species showing hostility to one of his people, he hadn't assumed that that person would also turn out to be one of the paladins. That's not so expected. Honestly, it strikes him as extremely unwise for a paladin to reveal himself to an unknown Galra when he's alone and unarmed, but now is not the time for a lecture.
