So, since some places make you use ID to get bitcoins it seems like they are almost pointless. But, I have heard of "Bitcoin Tumblers", which is essentially how to launder Bitcoins. Where is a Tumbling site?
-
Does anyone know?

I DONT KNOW

Silk road has a built in bitcoin tumbler. Other tumblers include bitcoin fog and the tumbler you can use in a blockchain.info wallet. The blockchain and bitcoin fog tumblers cost a small amount of money, 1-3% i think.

So a built in tumbler... Does that mean when you make a purchase it swaps the coins with some coins from somewhere else before actually giving them to the vendor?

Yep, when you make a deposit the coins all get mixed. The vendor does not get paid with the exact coins a buyer deposited.

SR has a built-in tumbler, as others have said. I wouldn't consider it prudent to tumble them on your own on top of SR's.
