Peter finished his sentence just as some of the more easily excitable cons finished blinking the light from their eyes and charged out into the sunlight beyond, obviously a bit less cautious than the group who sat in the back discussing whether or not to run out.

Jim, however, found himself somewhere in between. He knew that he was dead if he stayed, and he knew he was likely dead if he left, but likely dead was better than dead. And besides, those fools who ran would need someone to keep the marshalls busy, and so he stood up and walked out of the cage without a word and with little excitement. Though he did hold his arms out with his hands up in the universal sign of resigned surrender as soon as he exited, before his eyes had even adjusted to the light.

He hoped it would keep him from getting shot immediately. He also hoped someone would come within grabbing distance with their gun out. His only chances were to flee, or get a weapon and kill them before they killed him.

...And they had his father's rifle so running wasn't really an option.
